 My name is Amit Dan from AmitDan.com You are watching one of my deep travel videos and today I am taking to the magnificent Luxor temple offering an irrespective of all the shadows and lights at night. Located in the heart of Luxor, the Luxor temple was built over hundreds of years by the new kingdom Farahus. Known as the place of the first creation, this is where during the Farahus annually re-enacted coronation ceremony the god Amun experienced rebirth. Some striking anomalies can be seen in the complex. One of the temple halls was converted into a Christian church and then a Coptic church during the Christian era. There after thousands of years, a 14th century mosque was built on the southern wall. To this day the mosque is carefully preserved and active for praying. There is an entrance leading to the mosque from outside without entering through the main temple complex. The gigantic statues and columns were so big and high that I felt tiny when I was taking pictures standing next to them. The vast Luxor temple has a great colossal colonnade hall which is 61 meter long and you see thousands of sandstone fragments with carved and painted details of hieroglyph, text and temple ritual scenes. This was the first time we visited a temple at night. I guess the tour company arranged to visit at night because of the Luxor temple's famous night spectacles when the lights lit up. Thank you for watching this video. There will be more Egypt videos coming up so I'll see you shortly. Thank you.
