not as big as Karnak, but also amazing. well preserved. A must see in Luxor!

Close to town, well preserved, quite spectacular, a must see

This is nice temple but Karnak is slightly better. Luxor Temple is still worth visiting but you get the usual hassel and locals trying to take your picture.

Luxor temple is great at sunset because you avoid the major crowds and heat of the day. - Water inside the temple is expensive (10 LE for a small bottle) so i recommend taking your own in.

What can one say about the ancient ruins in Egypt! Saw this one in the evening. Lighting is awesome as is the history.
