Karnak Temple
Najboljši čas za obisk
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.
Nasveti za proračun
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.

O znamenitosti
Hitre informacije: Skoraj dva tisoč let trajajoča gradnja je ustvarila en sam svetiščni kompleks, ki so ga oblikovalo več kot trideset faraonov. V hipostilni dvorani stoji 134 ogromnih kamnitih stebrov, največji med njimi so 23 metrov visoki in imajo skoraj 15 metrov obsega.
Poudarki: Glavna dvorana je dovolj prostrana, da bi se vanjo hkrati umestila rimska bazilika svetega Petra in pariška Notre-Dame. Jutranja sončna svetloba, ki se pretaka skozi visoke kamnite okenske odprtine, obarva površine 23 metrov visokih stebrov v temno oranžno rdečo barvo, kot da bi sam kamen živel.
Notranji nasveti
- 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.
