Finishing the trip off at Karnak and Luxor temples was pretty chill. The size of these is breath taking and because they’re part of the New Kingdom, there is still lots of color, and then you start to see later influences, with old graffiti carved into places. What I liked about these temples was the scale of everything. That, combined with the minimal crowds when I was there was a very connected experience. I am used to feeling short but, in these temples, you felt like an ant.
Finishing at Luxor Temple was a treat. There was a nice breeze which certainly helped but I was lucky to visit during a very quiet time and enjoyed much of the temple in quiet reflection.
