"el karnak .... mish mumkin y ..." a Al Karnak Travel Page by ukirsari

our ‘opening’ karnak visit is beyond imagination! meet the trafficker … oh so mish mumkin! but thank god since it’s nothing compared to the karnak’s historical site itself. the hypostyle hall so breathtaking, as the huge “war-machine monuments” of pharaoh ramses ii. and the sphinxes ram-headed along the pavilion looks greeting us … they must be there long long time ago and already greetings to the guests since the middle kingdom of egypt era.

dalphin and puffin are holding their hands whenever an egyptian guy greetings them before the ticket box of karnak temple.
“hello, guys!” starting conversation from the egyptian.
“oh, hi” from dalphin and “assalaam-mualekum!” added puffin.
“guys, do you want to have hashish or cannabis?”
“huhhhhhhh???!!!” replied dalphin and puffin. “oh, do we look that stupid or innocent so he offer us this weird souvenir?” puffin asking to dalphin and dalphin can not stop his laugh.
“oh, habibi [oh my dear, my beloved ones],” puffin talking bit angrily to the ‘souvenir’ seller. “mish mumkin!!!” [that’s impossible].

for me, the most beautiful scene from el karnak temple is the hypostyle halls. but not to be missed also the avenue of ram headed sphinxies, the sacred lake and the gigantic king ramses II statues. compared to luxor temple which is more beautiful during the light show, i like el karnak with daylight.
