Karnak Temple
Paras aika vierailla
Between 7 and 9 in the morning, when the sunlight is lower and the large groups have not yet arrived. The months between November and February are the best, and the morning opening is always the quietest.
Budjettivinkit
The entrance fee is about 240 Egyptian pounds (approximately 4-5 euros), and you can also pay by credit card at the cash register. The sound and light show ticket is extra, which is better to book in advance, and in the morning hours there are fewer people, so there is less waiting in line.
Suositellaan
History enthusiasts, Photography enthusiasts, Cultural tourists, Families

Tietoa
Nopeat faktat: Lähes kahden tuhannen vuoden rakennustyö tuotti yhden pyhäkkökompleksin, jota yli kolmekymmentä faaraota muovasi. Hypostyylihallissa seisoo 134 valtavaa kivipylvästä, joista korkeimmat ovat 23 metriä korkeita ja lähes 15 metriä ympärysmitaltaan.
Kohokohdat: Päähalli on tarpeeksi valtava, että Rooman Pietarinkirkko ja pariisilainen Notre-Dame mahtuisivat sinne samanaikaisesti. Aamunvalo tulvii korkeista kivisistä ikkuna-aukkoista ja värjää 23 metriä korkeiden pylväiden pinnan syvän oranssinpunaiseksi, aivan kuin kivi itse olisi elävää.
Sisäpiirin vinkit
- 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.
