-The Karnak Temple
-The valley of the dead
-A trip to the temple of Dendera
-Abydos in the north and Esna or Edfu in the south |

Great page about one of the most interesting places in Egypt. I quite agree with you - the tomb of Tutankhamen is a kind of tourist traps. But I consider the collection of artefacts from this tomb in Cairo Museum as the trap as well... Thanks, Luc! | toonsarah Sun Dec 17, 2006 19:24 UTC
