Luxor is a city with a hundred doors
Luxor was part of the ancient Thebes, which ruled for 1350 consecutive years from 2100 BC to 750 BC, and the great Greek historian Homer called it the "city with a hundred doors" because of its buildings with large doors. Arabs admired her and her beauty, so they called her the shortest because of the many shortcomings they saw.
Luxor is characterized by its terrible pillars on all the shore of the Nile, whether in its eastern or western bank, where there are statues of Memnon, tombs and valleys of kings and queens and many of the temples and tombs of the most important figures
The most important names given to Luxor in its history are kindness, the city of the hundred doors, the city of the sun, the city of light, and the city of the scepter, and the Arabs called it this name: Luxor, the plural of the word palace where he combined the word palace (palaces) and combined multiplication or plural plural ( Luxor) due to its palaces and temples,
The history of Luxor dates back to 1400 years before prehistory. The city individually contains about two thirds of the antiquities of Egypt and is thus the greatest open museum in the world full of dread and the monuments inspired by ancient civilization. Most people may see Luxor in three different places which consist of Luxor on the eastern side of The Nile - the city of Karnak, north of Luxor - and Taybeh, which is located on the western side of the Nile, next to Luxor
Luxor Temple A large complex of ancient Egyptian temples located on the eastern bank of the Nile in the city of Luxor today known as the (ancient good). Founded in 1400 BC. The Luxor Temple was built for the worship of Amun Ra, his wife Mut, and their son Khonsu, the deities, also called the Tayyibi Trinity (Theban Triad). The Luxor Temple was built during the reign of the Eighteenth Dynasty and the Nineteenth Dynasty. The most important existing buildings in the temple are those built by the two kingdoms Amenhotep III (1397-1360 BC) and Ramses II (1290-1223 BC) (who added to the temple the open courtyard, the pylon, and the two obelisks). King Tuthmosis the Third (1490-1436 BC) established shelters for visitors to the holy trinity of Thebes, and Tutankhamun (1348-1337 BC) completed the inscriptions of his walls. The triple booth which had previously been built during the reign of Queen Hatshepsut and King Thutmose III (from the eighteenth dynasty) was destroyed; then it was rebuilt during the reign of King Ramses II. The temple was also called "Eppet Resit" (meaning the southern sanctuary or the site of Amun Ra). It is one of the best preserved and most beautiful Egyptian temples in which the layout of the Egyptian temple is most evident.
The history of the temple's construction
The era of the Middle Kingdom: It is possible that in the same area where Amenhotep the Third erected the temple, there are remains of an ancient temple or a sacred shrine dating back to the era of the Middle Kingdom, and most of the time it was believed that it was in the age of the Twelfth Dynasty.
King Amenhotep the Third: The credit for building the temple in its current image on the eastern bank of the Nile on one axis from north to south is due to Amenhotep the Third from the eighteenth dynasty kings.
Queen Hatshepsut and King Tuthmosis the Third: They constructed a small building consisting of three cemeteries dedicated to the Trinity of Thebes, and it is possible that King Ramses II reconstructed these cemeteries and registered a name for them.
King Ramses II: King Ramses II of the nineteenth family kings added a large edifice and a large courtyard courtyard with a large papyrus fleet.
Luxor Museum
It is located on the Nile Corniche in the center of Luxor, in the south of Egypt, which was known in the past as Thebes.
It opened in the year 1975 AD.
But his findings were in no way compared to the exhibits of the Cairo Museum of Archeology
Which contains the most wonderful valuables of ancient Egyptian civilization inside Egypt.
Among the museum's finest exhibits is a collection of antiques
Which was within the tomb of King Tutankhamun,
Also statues representing the era of the New Kingdom were found hidden near Luxor Temple in 1989.
The royal mummies of the pharaohs also find Ahmose the First and Ramses the First
Where it was added to the museum holdings in March 2004.
As part of the renovations in the museum
This included a visitor center, and a large exhibition and exhibition for the restoration of the walls of the Akhenaten Temple in Karnak.
