Luxor Temple

Karnak Temple Complex

Karnak Temple Complex is a vast open-air museum and the largest ancient religious site in the world. Construction work began in the 16th century BC. Approximately 30 pharaohs contributed to the buildings, enabling it to reach a size, complexity, and diversity not seen elsewhere.
