Global Treasures LUXOR Egypt
LUXOR, Egypt
Egypt's Golden Age commenced with Thebes, known today as Luxor, which lies on the eastern bank of the Nile. Homer referred to Luxor's temples as, El-Uqsor", "The Place of Palaces". From Ramses to Tut-ench-Amun...from Tutmosis to Hatschepsut...Egyptian rulers have bequeathed a priceless inheritance of monumental architecture.
Statues from the era of Ramses the Second, temples, necropolis' -- cities of the dead -- hieroglyphics, sphinxes and obelisks...they're all here in Luxor, the birthplace of modern Egyptology.
