My photos of the columns at the Karnak Temple, Luxor, Egypt.
At the heart of Karnak, the Nineteenth Dynasty pharaoh Sety I (reigned ca. 1291-1279 BCE) erected his Great Hypostyle Hall, a colossal forest of 134 giant sandstone columns supporting a high clerestory roof and enclosed by massive walls that after 3300 years remain substantially intact today.

Our room onboard The Oberoi Philae Luxury Nile Cruiser.
Apologies for the low-quality video. Had to compress it multiple times to fit the size-requirement of #Pixelfed at 15mb.

Landed in Luxor via plane. Approaching our Nile River Cruise Boat, the Oberoi Philae. Cruising the Nile River is the best way to see and visit the various sights along the stretch of the river.

My photo and the usual selfie at The Step Pyramid in Saqqara.
The Step Pyramid was built during the Third Dynasty as the tomb for Pharaoh Djoser. Constructed c. 2670–2650 BC. It was designed by the famous architect, Imhotep, who was later deified.
The Step Pyramid stands at a height of 204 feet (62 meters) with six stepped layers. It was the largest building of its time.

My photo while on a boat in #Varanasi. Lighting the swastika and then releasing it to the Ganges River for good luck.
The #swastika is an ancient symbol in #India that represents good fortune, well-being, and protection from evil. It is used in #Hinduism, #Buddhism, and #Jainism.
The swastika is an ancient symbol that dates back at least 11,000 years.
