    These two huge statues guard what once was a mortuary temple. The Statues are huge and very impressive, unfortunatly they were crumbling a bit, but nontheless they were well worth a stop at.

    This is a photo stop on the way to the Valley of the Kings. Unfortunately the Colossi were under restoration as you see. We took the pics and had a full job to keep all these awful bastards away who wanted to sell us their crap.

    Amazing is the only word that can describe the Collosi of Memnon. Even though they have been ravaged by the elements, time, and an earthquake they are still standing. At 23m high and roughly 1000 tons these statues guarded the outer gate of a mortuary temple built by Amenhotep III. They are all that remains.

    While crowded from the tourists that come to Luxor on buses from Hurghada and other tourist towns outside of Luxor its is still possible to take a good picture. As with all tourist sites in Egypt you will be approached by souvinier salesmen.

  • Around 17 merters high, these two large statues are the last remains of the largest Theban temple, the temple of Amenophis III. Almost all tour bus stops here. No chance of missing this place.

    As one crosses into the West Bank of the Nile and enters Ancient Thebes, these statues become visible. There is a parking area just prior to them, and no admission is charged. The statues are gigantic, so you cannot miss them.
