Temple of KarnakIt's one of the biggest religious buildings in all over the world; it's consisting of three temples dedicated to the Triad of Thebes (an old name for Luxor). The main temple was built for the Master God of Egypt Amon-Ra and the others for his wife Goddess Mut and their son God Khonsou. Karnak temple started as a little shrine for the local God Amon during the middle kingdom times when Luxor was just an ordinary city but when it was changed to be the capital of Egypt at the beginning of the New Kingdom; its local God Amon was upgraded to be the Master God of Egypt and thus his Karnak temple was expanded and enlarged over 1500 years to be the largest in Egypt. In karnak temples you are going to see the Hypostyle Hall which is considered the biggest hall of pillars in the world, it was founded by king Ramsses II and his father Seti I, then you will see the Obelisks of Queen Hatshepsut and her father Tutmosis I and also you are going to see the beautiful sacred lake and the great beetle scarab statue which was the symbol of the sun cult.
