Before your trip to Luxor Egypt, you should know that its attractions are on opposite sides of a river. Because the Nile runs through the middle of the city, you’ll have to plan two separate trips to see the western and eastern parts. Most of the city’s must-see sights, like the Valley of the Kings and others, are west of the metropolitan area.
On the other hand, the impressive Temple of Karnak, the Luxor Museum, and the Museum of Mummification are all on the site’s eastern side. You can also find the Temple of Luxor on this side, specifically on the east. This side of the Nile is where you’ll find the Avenue of the Sphinxes and some of the most modern and luxurious hotels. It is also where the Sharia al-Markaz and the Sharia al-Lokanda meet, a beautiful and enchanting place where tourists spend many hours shopping at one of the best bazaars and markets in the area. It is also where the Sharia al-Markaz and the Sharia al-Lokanda meet, a beautiful and magical place.
Luxor sightseeing
The ancient Egyptian capital, Thebes, was once the city now called Luxor. Egypt’s most famous temples, tombs, and monuments are in modern-day Luxor. Because of this, it is thought to be the best open-air museum in the world.
- The Valley of Kings
Another UNESCO World Heritage Site in Egypt is the Valley of the Kings. All tourists to Egypt should walk through this valley, which is about 10 kilometers northwest of Luxor, and be amazed by the beauty of the more than 62 tombs dedicated to the most famous pharaohs of the New Kingdom of Egypt, as well as the many others built in honor of queens, princes, pets, and even specific moments in daily life or the building of the mausoleum.
- The Valley of the Queens
The Valley of the Queens is one of the most popular places in Luxor because it has more than 70 tombs, many of which have beautiful paintings. A great example of this is the tomb of Nefertari, who was the ruler of Egypt during the 19th dynasty. The beautiful polychrome reliefs on her grave have been preserved over time and can still be seen by tourists visiting the site.
