The Colossi of Memnon

Witness the grandeur of the Colossi of Memnon, the two massive stone statues of King Amenhotep III, which are the only remnants of a once-complete mortuary temple. The statues, made of quartzite sandstone, were moved all the way from Cairo to Luxor, standing as impressive remains of the largest complex on the west bank, built by Amenhotep III.

Enjoy a delicious lunch at a local restaurant in Luxor before proceeding to your next destination.
