Magnificent temples and a good explanation of how the ancient Egyptians built the pyramids
TravelerWow. This is beautiful and I love how your guide describes the building process using the muff bricks to build up the wall and to add the carvings on the way down. Brilliant! But really - no aliens helped?! 😉
TravelerOpps, meant mud bricks. (Autocorrect?)
TravelerBTW, did I see really Hercules Poirot in background of one of your photos?

Well look at this. Their seating was ergonomically built in proportion to their height. How considerate. No dangling feet in this temple (and hence no ottomans) 😉
