Karnak Temple
Construction of Karnak Temple began around 2000 BCE during the Middle Kingdom, and during the New Kingdom many pharaohs donated temples, statues, obelisks, and other structures, developing it into a vast temple complex. Expansion and renovation continued through the Greco-Roman period, giving it a history of more than 2,000 years.
The temple consists of groups of temples dedicated to multiple deities centered on the chief god Amun, including Mut and Montu. Among them, the Great Temple of Amun is the largest, and its magnificent hypostyle hall and towering gateways overwhelm visitors.
[Japanese Guide]

Valley of the Kings (Entrance to Tutankhamun's Tomb)
The Valley of the Kings was the site where royal tombs were constructed for about 500 years from the 16th to the 11th century BCE. Tombs of famous pharaohs such as Ramesses II and Tutankhamun are located here. However, to prevent theft, the locations of the royal tombs were kept highly secret, and their existence was forgotten for a long time.
From the early 19th century when Italian explorer Belzoni made the first discoveries, many explorers and archaeologists conducted excavations and brought numerous valuable artifacts to light. Among them, the 1922 discovery of Tutankhamun’s tomb by British archaeologist Carter, with its lavish treasures, shocked the world and marked the golden age of Egyptian archaeology.

Mortuary Temple of Hatshepsut
The Mortuary Temple of Hatshepsut, located on the west bank of the Nile in Luxor, Egypt, is the magnificent funerary temple built by the only female pharaoh of ancient Egypt, Hatshepsut, for herself. Its beautiful architecture and the many reliefs that testify to the queen’s great power and devotion continue to fascinate archaeologists and history enthusiasts worldwide.
The temple is constructed as three terraced levels along the slope of the Theban hills. Each terrace is connected by ramps, resembling a staircase to the heavens. This unique structure is thought to symbolize worship of the sun god Amun and the queen’s royal authority.

Colossi of Memnon
The Colossi of Memnon, standing on the west bank of the Nile in Luxor, Egypt, are a grand remnant of ancient Egyptian civilization, shrouded in mysteries and romance.
The Colossi are seated statues of Amenhotep III of the 18th Dynasty. They once stood at the entrance of his mortuary temple and symbolized the king’s majesty. Later, as the mortuary temple was destroyed, the two statues remained isolated in the desert.
The name of the statues comes from Memnon, a king of Ethiopia in Greek mythology. In Roman times, one of the statues was damaged by an earthquake and was said to emit strange sounds at dawn. People believed the sound was Memnon mourning his mother and came to visit the statues.

Luxor Temple Illuminated
Luxor Temple was not just a building but a symbol of ancient Egyptian religion, daily life, and kingship. The temple walls are covered with hieroglyphic murals and elaborate reliefs that tell ancient Egyptian myths and history.
Especially famous are the reliefs depicting the annual festival known as the "Opet Festival." This festival involved the procession of the god Amun from Karnak Temple to Luxor Temple in a divine barque to reunite with his consort Mut, and it was an extremely important rite for the ancient Egyptians.
