Today I made a small tour to the biggest temple in Egypt, Karnak Temple. Impressive mix of sanctuaries, constructions, columns, obelisks over 2 Km², it shows the advanced technology in construction they had. After a relaxing lunch on the Nile riverside, I went to Luxor temple, where the pharaoh used to have his honeymoon for 27 days with his wife.
Beautiful temple too, where a mosque was built years later, and the Christians erased some of the Egyptians figures to try to change religion.
In the night I get back to Cairo, for my final day in Egypt this year.
