Luxor Temple is located on the east bank of the Nile in the city. It was founded during the New Kingdom around 1400 BC. The temple was dedicated to Amun, Mut and Khonsu and was the focus of one of the most important religious festivals in ancient Egypt (the annual Opet Festival). The temple does not line up with the river (as is usual) so some also suggest that the temple was in fact dedicated to the royal ka, who was symbolically associated with the living king during the Opet Festival. Thus, the Luxor Temple was a shrine to the worship of the king, and not only to the god of Thebes and his family. This temple includes many statues, huge columns, and others. Do not hesitate and visit it with your family and friends and enjoy learning about the ancient Egyptian history and take memorial photos for you in this wonderful place.
