Luxor Tours Excursions
Luxor is a city in Upper (southern)
Egypt and the capital of Luxor Governorate. The
population numbers 376,022 (1999 survey), with an area
of approximately 416 square kilometers (161 sq mi) [1].
As the site of the Ancient Egyptian city of Thebes, Luxor
has frequently been characterized as the "world's
greatest open air museum", as the ruins of the temple
complexes at Karnak and Luxor stand within the modern
city. Immediately opposite, across the River Nile, lie
the monuments, temples and tombs on the West Bank
Necropolis, which include the Valley of the Kings and
Valley of the Queens.
