Teave
Kiired faktid: Peaaegu kaks tuhat aastat kestnud ehituse tulemuseks oli üksainus pühakodade kompleks, mida kujundasid rohkem kui kolmkümmend vaaraod. Hüpostüülisaalis seisab 134 kolossaalset kivisammast, suurimad on 23 meetri kõrgused ja nende ümbermõõt on peaaegu 15 meetrit.
Esiletõstmised: Peasaal on nii tohutu, et Rooma Püha Peetruse basiilika ja Pariisi Notre-Dame mahuvad sinna korraga ära. Hommikune päikesevalgus voolab läbi kõrgete aknaavade ja värvib 23 meetri kõrguste sammaste pinnad sügavaks oranžpunaseks, justkui oleks kivi ise elus.
Sisekujunduse nõuanded
- Arrive at the 7 am opening, when the light between the columns is the most dramatic and the groups have not yet arrived.
- The northern side of the sacred lake is the best photo spot, because the reflection of the columns in the water is beautiful.
- Sunglasses are needed, because the stone surfaces reflect the strong afternoon light, and a wide hat provides protection.
- Walking around the scarab statue seven times is the ancient custom for achieving good luck, and the locals often do this.
