Luxor

Thebes (now Luxor) was the capital of the New Kingdom (1550-1069 BC). It is regarded as the World's greatest open air museum. Luxor was designated as a World Heritage Site in 1979. On our first visit, we only managed to see the Valley of the Kings and the temples of Karnak, Luxor and Hatschepsut. This time we came back with a vengeance and were determined to see as much of what Luxor has to offer.
