Located on the east bank of the Nile River, Luxor Temple is one of the most stunning ancient Egyptian temples. Built primarily by Amenhotep III and later expanded by Ramses II, the temple was dedicated to the rejuvenation of kingship and the Theban Triad of Amun, Mut, and Khonsu. Its grand entrance, lined with massive statues and towering obelisks, leads to intricately carved halls and sanctuaries.
