The largest ancient ancient religious temple complex in the world? - Sign me up!
The Karnak temple complex, commonly called Karnak, includes a vast number of sacred structures. Ancient temples, ancient shrines, ancient chapels, ancient pylons, ancient courtyards, ancient porches aaand many many others :D were constructed on the site by generations of pharaohs for hundreds of years. Just think of any New Kingdom pharaoh; Amenhotep I? Thutmose III? Hatshepsut? Ramesses the Great? Ramses III? Tutankhamun? They as well as their predecessors and successors commissioned works in once the most sacred place in the world. The first to build there were the rulers of the Middle Kingdom, such as Senusret I, but also much later pharaohs like Taharqa, Alexander the Great, the Ptolemies or Romans either constructed new edifices or added to, renovated or adapted the old, quite often decayed structures making Karnak great again. ;)

Join me to explore the Festival Hall of Thutmose III, temples of Amun-Ra’s “family” - Khonsu and Mut as well as the temple of Rameses the Great and imposing pylons of the southern processional route. Let’s take a peek at the lesser visited shrines of Karnak and, naturally, let’s get to know more about their history!
Explored in February 2022.
It's a must-see video for all of you, who visit Egypt or Luxor for the first time. To appreciate and cherish the magic of the place before you travel to Egypt, Luxor or Upper Egypt watch this.
