Karnak Temple is incredible, 60 acres of temple built over 2000 years. Because it was being continually added to it has many different features in one place. It was also never completed so there are many hints about ancient building practices. It is also connected to Luxor Temple via an avenue of sphinixes that runs being our hotel. The perfect final ancient temple visit for my Egypt trip.
These mud bricks were how they accessed the high parts of their building projects.

Very quickly making me a falafel sandwich for lunch. Falafel here is made with fava beans, so much better than the chick pea version we get in Australia.
A rooftop dinner near our hotel, views of Luxor Temple, the Nile and the Valley of Kings. If only it was dark by 6:45pm but at least they're well lit up.
