Its one of those places that makes you love Egypt and the culture all the more. I had the chance to go at night and the place was so magical. The entire structure is well lit showcasing all the different sections of the temples. And right across the entrance lies the famous 3 kilometres road of the sphinx.

Great temple, cool to see the sphinx alley, as well as Christian and Islamic additions to the original temple.Id recommend avoiding the night when its lit up - crowds are insane and I think the sun illuminates the site better anyway

It is so amazing that these ruins are here after so long. This is somewhere I have wanted to take my daughter for years and we finally got to do it in 2021. I am so glad we managed to do all the sights around Luxor. This really was a once in a lifetime trip. The temple itself is in good condition considering the age and we really enjoyed walking round the ruins learning about its history. Would definitely recommend this to anyone. Also hotels and trips in Luxor are really good value at the moment so its an ideal time to go.

This was my favorite visit of all in Egypt. It was incredible during the day but even more magical at night. I recommend going both ways. The peace one feels while meditating here is simply indescribable. An absolute must visit especially if you can avoid the crowds. Outstanding overall! A+

Really, It’s a fantastic temple of ancient Egyptian lifeI enjoyed so much in this part of the world among the very kind Egyptian people who willing to serve you especially guides who can read the old Egyptian languageIt’s located on the Nile river and you can touch the stones and hard rocks of the old Egyptian statues

Beautiful place! Dont miss it, visit it with the sunset and evening so you can see it illuminated 😍

Maybe its first temple you ll see in luxor as its settled in the heart of the down town and so close to the train station.It was dedicated for worship Amon.Its very nice to visit at the time of sunset and also at the night.

Impressive, and the recently open Avenue of Sphinxes adds a lot of majesty to the place. Try going there in the evening as the light is so much better and everything looks more stunning. Make sure to note a mosque built on the top of the ancient temple, which was also used as a Christian church. The intertwining of religions is quite surprising in this region.

Its simple yet beautiful, in heart of Luxor. Mix of all civilizations at one place... magnificent.

Dirty and horrible smell!I wanted to visit this temple because is famous and looks very good especially from far away.When you come closer the smell is disgusting because near the Temple are a lot of horse carriages and also bad is that is very dirty full of street garbage so I changed my mind.Too bad that is not properly taken care of!!

I got to experience this ethereal temple closing in on an evening, where the atmosphere was magnified even more than it is in the daylight hours. How can you explain being in the presense of an exquisite temple thousands of years old, in such amazing condition? Im sorry my friends- unless youre there its inexplicable. I couldnt have fathomed it myself until a few days ago. There were quite a lot of people but not so much that you couldnt move freely, and for a small Bagsheesh a local will set you up with the optimal spots for picture taking that others may not have considered. The best pics are on my husbands camera but Ill still upload a couple here.

Amazing place! So much to explore. Spend the time looking at the hieroglyphs, the ancient stone grave yard, the different rooms and admiring the obelisks and statues. Walking down the avenue of the Spynxes to the Karnak temple is also a must. There are bathrooms and staff was friendly overall. From here explore the souk nearby or shopping avenue.

An amazing historical site! A must visit if coming to Egypt. Probably my favorite site in all of Egypt! The sheer size and age of the temple is hard to grasp and not fully appreciated if only looking at pictures or videos. You have to be there to get the full experience.

Please be careful when viewing the photos.You may find it inappropriate for some of the relief photos. Im sorry if you feel uncomfortable.It is lit up at night and is very beautiful.I heard from the guideThere was a wonderfully valuable archaeological site under one of the colonnades, so I dug up the other colonnade, but nothing came out of it.

We visited while the construction was ongoing for the November 25th ceremony so the Ram Avenue was blocked off and the area was busy with construction staff.The temple was incredible nonetheless. The massive statues of kings are just brilliant!Although of all the templates I visited in Luxor this was my least favourite.

Very wonderful historical.. Its perfect temple.. I suggest it to everyone want to know about the civilization.

Place cant describe 😍, you need to visit yourself. If you interested you can take the new long pedestrian pathway from Karnak temple to Luxor temple (3 km)

The Luxor Temple is a large Ancient Egyptian temple complex located on the east bank of the Nile River in the city today known as Luxor and was constructed approximately 1400 BCE. It is one of the two primary temples on the east bank, the other being Karnak.Many of the pillars are still standing with large areas of original paintings.

This is a beautiful temple with many unique fixtures. Highly recommend you visit at night.

Absolutely huge temple. Thousands and thousands carvings in the stones.With the nearly opened avenue of Spynxs ending / starting here it offers unparalleled views up the avenue.The temple site is an active archeological site as well. You can see dozens of people working throughout the temple and surrounding ground.

Smaller than Karnak but better preserved and thus probably more impressive. It costs 160 EGP to enter and you are rewarded with one of the more magnificent sights that youll ever behold. A nearly perfectly preserved pair of three and a half thousand year old pylons, flanked by six gigantic statues of pharaohs and a 24 meter tall obelisk that is the twin to the one standing at Place de la Concorde in Paris. The temple itself has well preserved courtyards and an intact inner sanctum. Especially impressive are the great hypostyle hall and the second courtyard of Amenhotep III with beautiful lotus shaped columns. Wonderful place!

Seeing it lit up at night is a great experience! It was too busy for my liking but seeing the details of the temple lit up with spot lights really accents their details.

I took a flight from Cairo Egypt to luxor.to see the ruins. This is an awesome place with a lot to see. I went to the temples. It was great knowledge. It also was a lot to absorb. Great structures going back to 900 B.C.

Great temple really and contains alot of ancient drawings and statues.You will feel that you want to visit alot of time to discover it all.It describes utterly how great was the ancient civilization.

The temple has a very interesting story, my advice to have a tour guide to enjoy your tour

Amazing place after renewal, you fell the history of ancient Egyptian!The temple is around 2400 years old and one of the biggest temples

This temple on the evening is luxurious completely different from the morning opens till 9 pm prepaired with everything beside the sphinx avenue is fantastic I love it ♥️

Beautiful place! You can take your time and see everything in the temple in about an hour. Maybe my most enjoyable experience in Egypt.

It was glorious!The rocks there make you feel very delighted 🙂

Amazing place what is good to visit at the evening time when all in lights.

Beautiful temple, much larger in scale than the Kom Ombo or Edfu temples.The temple is lit at night so a late afternoon visit will allow you to get both day and night perspectives.

Visiting luxor and the valley of the kings, one cannot miss the temples of luxor and kanak, united a few days ago by a single street surrounded by statues representing the sphinxes. Two and a half kilometers long, it is a walk in the center of the thousand-year history of the pharaohs. Admission is subject to a fee and maximum security like all Egyptian public places. Vie toilet and some souvenir shops. The place is very clean and well kept, I recommend renting a guide as there is a lot of information on what you see. From here the history passed from the period of the ancient pharaohs, to the Romans to alexander the great. The changes are clearly visible and fascinating. Not to be missed.

A popular historical site at night and was well lit up. I paid a big extra at the gate as I carried a small tripod with me (in fact I could hide it in the bag). our guide was a teacher in the Islamic studies, he asked for a permission and we (including women, of course wearing hijab) went into the Abou al-Haggag Mosque; and at the balcony we had a good high up view of the Luxor Temple.

Very remarkable notes about the new discoveries in the Ancient Egypt history.

Considering this place Luxor Temple & Karnak Temple the Father of all TemplesWorth visiting at least once a life as history warshippers visit the holy placesNight More sentimental and day more glorious

This place is a must visit while traveling to Luxor! Full off history! Have a bottle of water or juce with you!

Awe inspiring restoration work and great stories to be told about this place. Highly recommend having a good tour guide to explain the points of significance and stories or you will miss out on a lot.

I was there just a few days before the big event, so the preparations that were going on contributed to reducing the attractiveness of the place. Nevertheless, there is a lot to see and some exhibits hide interesting stories - e.g. associated with Alexander the Great

The main attraction for us in Luxor was this temple. You have to be there for sunrise as its the best time to catch the light on the massive columns as well as having the place pretty much all to yourself. We were literally the only people there in the morning and had so much fun, taking in the sights without being rushed.We love to travel so for more reviews and places we visit Check us out on insta: sunkissedbucketlist and YouTube: sunkissedbucketlist

The Luxor Temple was amazing. Being there as the sun set provided an ambiance not to be forgotten. Definitely a must visit.

One of the most beautiful temple in the world. Amazing experience!

Beautifull place. Would have give it five star rating if it was not for the harrassement/hassle on the streets. Walking there, in times of covid, is a no-go. Every 10 seconds someone demands your attention and ignoring them is sadly not enough.If youre a tourist, go by taxi from the hotel to the entrance. If you drive a car, Luxor seems to me like a car-friendly city.Inside the temple its absolutely astonishing.Unfortunately, a lot of kids (around 5pm) demands your attention as well, they find tourists interesting and ask for photos.Go in the morning, like any other touristic area. Although during the sunset is a nice view.Ps: there is a mosk next to it. If youre highly sensitive to loud music, bring earpieces.

Luxor temple is a must visit , easily accessible by Nile Corniche of luxor

I think you must visit with person who know the history

Excellent temple in the middle of the Luxor action. Enjoy a nice stroll down the tourist souk or along the Nile, and wind up right at the entrance to this incredibly well-preserved gem. Have dinner and (after COVID) a hookah across the street ar sunset, watching the hawks fly over the temple. Then, as dusk settles in, cross the street and step back 3000 years. See the lights come on - both on the ancient temple pillars and the West Bank mountains across the Nile. Then, explore intimately the hieroglyphs and arcades as night settles in. Perfect experience all round!

Got to take trip down Nile on the Sun Goddess. Amazing.

Amazing. Try to go back to Karnak through the avenue if the sphinxes

Visiting Luxor Temple at night was amazing! Felt like the ancestors were with us that night! All the orbs in my videos were proof!

My visit to the temple was in the evening. The temple was beautiful with many different stories

One of Old Egyptian civilization remnant, very genius location, many stories about ancient egyptian civilization you can hear there، now the Big road to Karnak temple has been opened

Well organised entrance with lots of space. Nice walk to the site with grand entrance. Helpful staff. Closes early abd was lucky to leave at sunset.

Its beautiful to learn about the history of Egypt . But please I beg you WEAR SUNBLOCK , sunglasses and bring WATER you will be severely dehydrated if you dont . Also wear a hat and bring money to buy water and tip . Other wise from the scorching heat its beautiful . To fellow christians this place is calling out to you

One of the oldest history of the ancient world.

We saw a lot of sites in Egypt and this was my favorite. The statues and sphinxes were impressive and its one of the more complete and grand complexes we saw. Easy to walk to from the Winter Palace and is along the Corniche. Be warned that the sellers will drive you crazy and are very aggressive.

Beautiful historical site! Best to have a professional guide to get the most out of your visit.

Please try to visit around sunset. The temple is beautifully lit at night. The experience of walking around the lit temple is unique.

A wonderful ancient monument and must see experience.

Impressive! Its one of the most beautiful places on earth 🌎. You definitely need a guide for this tour

Luxor temple is right in Luxor city and is a wonderful sight along with an open air museum its a must do in Luxor. The scale of the temple is a sight to behold and relatively easy to walk. Currently (october 21 2021) they are under some reconstruction and some development for a new path between Luxor and Karnak temple. I heard it will be complete in November giving better access to the two places for tourists and festivals.If you are able to understand Arabic all the temples have guardians of the temple (people whos generational family have worked in the tombs) who can give you a better tour and explanation than any guide as well as a small tip will satisfy them.Must see.

So amazing. Sphinx valley is great to see. Night view is no doubt thrilling but day light visit is better for a family tour for safety reason.

I visited the temple at night. A beautiful experience with a touch of history under the lights, surrounded by a peaceful Nile, priceless.

Amazing this temple was preserved. Must see top 5 egypt. Accessible

Amazing temple, one of the most visited places in Luxor and recommended for anyone to visit as soon as they step a foot in Luxor.

Beautiful preserved and Maintained see it at night and make sure you take a Guide

The other temple in the city is the Luxor temple. It is beautiful place and worth visiting and do not forget to go at night, it is amazing with the lights.

Great experience of visiting artifacts the real Luxor is way better in person 🔥🔥🔥

Very large and interesting temple, try not to visit during an event, we visited the day before the president of Egypt held a governmental event.

Words cant describe how magnificent is that place. You can take better pictures in daylight but the night pictures are alright. Beware theyd kill the lights by 7:45 pm

Once again a lovely temple with great history. The avenue of the sphinx adds to it as well now that its opened

Luxor is a must visit city in Egypt specially if you have a unique tour guide like Mr Alaa Rashwan an experienced Egyptologist to make your visit unforgettable.

This is another one of Egypts must see great places. Make sure to bring some small change in Egyptian money or $1 bills for tips to security guards if you want them to show you good places for pictures and also for having them take pictures for you. Guards with AK-47 mashine guns usually show the best and neatest places to take pictures.

Incredible temple, the best time to visit it is at night.

The Amazing Luxor Temple❤️🇪🇬

Simply astonishing!!Not crowded at allRecommended to visit by sunset

Amazing place!I highly recommand visitation during the night!

I didnt visit it inside because i walked around it and you can have a good view of the ruins.Was told that Karnak Temple was more important to visit that this one. It was truth. Really bigger size and more to visit.Its nice to go around during night time near the Nile river, its iluminated.

It made me love Egypt and Pharaohs era more and more

Excellent temple complex in the heart of Luxor. A must see.

One of my favorite. The fresco from the 3rd century painted on top of the hieroglyphics. Stunning distraction and rich history.

One of the best temple among Egypt staying partially built. In luxor capital of the ancient Egyptians dynasty of theban pharaon you will find big monuments decorated by amazing statues. The visit over night is perfect with the well balanced lightning and especially for the sunset on the nil. For egyptology lovers

Awesome, outstanding, lots of people and lots of heat, memories are made here.

Obligatory point in Egipt. One star less in case of renovation, not possibile to see enything of antic paints.

Well, its amazing. The temples and carvings are mind-blowing, add us so much in Egypt . I was so overwhelmed by Karnak that I couldnt appreciate it all much as if I hadnt gone to them back to back. Both of them, so totally unmissable!

One of the best pharaonic temples of Egypt

You wont be disappointed with a trip to this gorgeous place!

Best of its kind. Do not miss this historic place. Great venue to make amazing pictures, especially at sun set

Such an amazing Temple. You can see while youre taking a walk by the Nile, but also when you go inside its amazing.

Luxor temple is supposed to be awesome at any time, however, it is too crowded until 19:00. Better to visit between 19:00 and 20:00 and enjoy the temple with beautiful light. Currently (October 2021) there is a construction work being doing, but Im not sure if it is about building a permanent entertainment scene or it is just a temporary construction.

Make sure you have comfy shoes on, walking distance is around 10km

Perfect example of ancient history.

Very good temple! Egyptian temple and has a lot of civilizations Egyptian Christian and Muslim Roman mix

Beautiful ruin, better at night

All I can say is amazing!

Its very nice and fantastic historical place, you can watch the various generations here.Starting from Pharaohs after that romantic, coptic and Islamic civilizations

As beautiful as in your wildest dreams!

Absolutely incredible scenes, how anyone can leave a lower review is laughable. I recommend going with a guide to help bring the history to life. If you see people leaving on the monuments or trying to climb on this piece of history please punch them in the face.

Amazing temple with a lot of history!Hire a tour guide, otherwise you want be able to understand the monument into detail.Tip: visit in the evening to see the lights too.

Not too crowded. Amazing array of sphinx.

Great Egyptian history and great Egyptian people ❤

This is one of the most amazing temple in Egypt!182 pics! These photos will take you on a short, brief journey inside the temple from the entrance to the exitو Enjoy with that short story!..
