Luxor Temple
Najbolje vreme za posetu
Come at sunset and linger into evening, when the floodlights wash the sandstone in warm orange and the obelisk glows against the dark sky. Mornings before 9 a.m. keep the crowds thin and the paving stones cool underfoot.
Saveti za budžet
Entry is around 200 EGP for international visitors, and the Luxor Pass bundles this site together with nearby monuments for one flat fee. Carry small bills for optional extras like the modern restrooms or splitting a hired local guide with a few fellow travelers.

O atrakciji
Brze činjenice: Svake godine sveštenici su vukli statue svetih lađa niz aveniju sfingi s ovnujskim glavama, u procesiji dugoj 2,7 kilometara, da bi ovde proslavili festival Opet. Jedan preživeli obelisk i dalje se uzdiže 25 metara nad dvorištem, a njegov nestali blizanac sada stoji na pariskom trgu Place de la Concorde.
Istaknuto: Uspon na krov džamije Abu Hagag otkriva srednjovekovnu kupolu uglavljenom pravo na vrh drevnih stubova, tako da možete videti egipatsko kamenorezačko umeće i islamske lukove naslagane sa vekovima razmaka. Sa istog krova uočite zidne slike rimskog doba oklopljenih vojnika koje su kasniji vernici naslikali pravo preko reljefa faraona.
Insajderski saveti
- Arrive at opening or just before sunset to dodge the midday tour buses that clog the pylon entrance.
- The Avenue of Sphinxes photographs best from the southeast, with the pylon and obelisk stacked behind the ram-headed figures.
- Wear sturdy shoes and carry water, since the gravel courts heat up fast and offer almost no shade.
- Skip the cramped inner sanctuary during tour rush and climb to the mosque-side rooftop for the widest views over the columns.
