The total area of  Karnak Temple Complex covers an area of ??about 30 hectares. The largest area of  the temple complex is the site of Amon.

And, of course, there are many more interesting things in the Karnak temple.

Colossi of Memnon

The Colossi of Memnon are two ancient Egyptian colossal statues from the 14th century BC, standing side by side. You are in the Nile Valley near the Valley of the Kings in Western Thebes. Quartzite statues depict King Amenhotep III sitting on a throne. The statues are still about 18 meters high, including the pedestal.
Next, you will have a lunch break in a cozy and beautiful restaurant, where you can relax and enjoy your lunch.

Valley of the Kings

Valley of the Kings was a necropolis in ancient Egypt, the ancient Egyptian called the Valley of the Kings Sechet-aat “the great field”. The Valley of the Kings is the largest burial place of the Egyptian pharaohs. In particular, the tombs of the rulers of the new kingdom can be found in the Valley of the Kings. The valley is located in western Thebes, opposite Karnak, on the edge of the desert and surrounded by high mountains.
Despite thousands of years of excavation and looting, the Valley of the Kings still provides Egyptologists with many extremely valuable tomb finds. In 1922, Tutankhamen’s tomb was discovered virtually intact. The first clearly identified tomb in the Valley of the Kings belongs to Pharaoh Thutmose I. Napoleon’s expedition to Egypt marked the beginning of a systematic search and opening of the tombs. In the Valley of the Kings you will visit three tombs.

Mortuary Temple of Hatshepsut

Mortuary Temple of Hatshepsut Dating back to the 18th Dynasty, the Mortuary Temple of Hatshepsut is the best preserved temple in Thebes on the west bank of the Nile. The entire temple was built of limestone. This temple was built in about 15 years, from the 7th to the 22nd year of the reign of Queen Hatshepsut. The temple has its own unique architecture.
