    Luxor Museum

    November 2, 2022 in Egypt ⋅ 🌙 26 °C

    It was a very short interlude to rest up at the hotel before I headed back across the river for the evening opening of the Luxor Museum.

    This is a smaller museum than some I have been to on this trip and found the hour and a half I spent there was enough to fully appreciate it. The pieces on display are mainly from ancient Thebes (Luxor). The are some very stunning sculptures.Read more
