LUXOR (Thebes )

Perhaps no city in the world has bequeathed to us more numerous nor mightier monuments than Thebes. It's marvellous monuments were raised in the honour of the great god of ancient Egypt Amon-Ra.
Even the great kings in ancient Egypt wanted to be immortal,so they built for themselves marvelous funeral temples and great tombs
