Your voyage of discovery across 5,000 years of Egyptian history.
Egypt's southernmost city, Aswan is located 240 kilometres along the River Nile from Luxor. At Aswan, the desert touches the banks of the Nile River and the waters are dotted with islands. Aswan was historically an important trading town and remains a bustling marketplace.
This ancient Egyptian village was home to the artisans who worked on the tombs in the Valley of the Kings and presents one of the most complete examples of age old community life. Inhabited for almost four hundred years, extensive excavation work in contemporary times has enabled us to understand the social structures and interactions, working and living conditions of this working community; even to name many of the inhabitants and describe their daily interactions.
Karnak Temple lay buried under sand for more than 1,000 years before excavation work began in the mid 19th century. The huge task of restoring this five acre temple continues until today.
Located on the east bank of the Nile River, Luxor is the site of the ancient city of Thebes. It is sometimes called the world’s greatest open air museum because of its vast complexes of temple ruins. Directly opposite Luxor, on the western bank of the River Nile, lie the Valley of the Queens and the Valley of the Kings, which is the site of the tomb of King Tutankhamen.
