Places to see

73 of 73
  1. Bark Shrine of Amun: story on the “Opet Road: From Karnak to Luxor Temple” route

    This stop shows how an absent ruler could be included in a living temple ritual.

  2. Courtyard of Ramesses the Second and Abu al-Haggag Mosque: story on the “Opet Road: From Karnak to Luxor Temple” route

    The final point brings together a pharaonic courtyard, a medieval shrine, and archaeological clearance in one place.

  3. Great Colonnade of Luxor Temple: story on the “Opet Road: From Karnak to Luxor Temple” route

    The reliefs will take the walk back to the procession itself and show how later kings appropriated its images.

  4. Great Hypostyle Hall: story on the “Opet Road: From Karnak to Luxor Temple” route

    Here the processional route takes on an architectural scale, and the route acquires its first trace of a later mistake.

  5. Luxor Museum: story on the “Opet Road: From Karnak to Luxor Temple” route

    The museum lets you see how archaeologists reassemble a vanished building and where they refuse to guess.

  6. Middle Section of the Avenue of Sphinxes: story on the “Opet Road: From Karnak to Luxor Temple” route

    Here the route moves from the old quay to the newly laid-out overland road of the festival.

  7. Mummification Museum: story on the “Opet Road: From Karnak to Luxor Temple” route

    A compact exhibition will replace royal monuments with a testable experiment in ancient technique.

  8. Northern Sphinxes of Karnak: story on the “Opet Road: From Karnak to Luxor Temple” route

    The row by the quay connects Amun's road with one man's struggle for royal recognition.

  9. Pylon and Obelisk of Luxor Temple: story on the “Opet Road: From Karnak to Luxor Temple” route

    The paired entrance reveals the gap between the ancient temple design and the square’s present appearance.
