    Marvellous temple ruins in a charming village setting

    This temple is ruinous, and it's rather difficult to find, being set amid a rural village a few km south of Luxor. It's really one for the specialist archaeologist or Egyptologist, or those who fancy a scenic drive. If you are indeed a specialist, this...More

    one for the enhusiast

    This temple is in a very ruined state. Most of the surviving temple is Ptolemaic, with a small structure that bears the names of Thutmose III and Ramesses II. The area still gets flooded, and you can see the damage it causes to the stone...More

    only for the most dedicated temple ruin visitor

    I had seen the five star rating on here and went to have a look and was frankly disappointed. Yes, the site is peaceful and free from other visitors, but really, that is the same as pretty much everywhere in Egypt still. Considering the out...More

    A hidden gem

    I can honestly say that I was not expecting this temple to be more than a few walls and some reliefs - I was wrong. This is still a small site, but the quality of the reliefs that remain are in an excellent state of...More

    Temple of Montu in Tod south of Luxor

    Wery peaceful place and much to see. Little difficult to find on your own, and tickets must be bought the same day in advance in the Luxor Temple ticket office. Big sicamore-tree alley is nice and unusual. Nice ruins of temple, remains of sacred lake...More
