"Luxor : ancient Egyptian city of Thebes " a Luxor Travel Page by VZ-Pam

I went to the Karnak Sound & Light Show at night & I also visited the temple during the day.
To me, I think visit this place in the day is a much better deal. The Sound & Light show was not as good as the one in Cairo. The last segment of the show which visitors sat down & listened to the long recordings of egyptian ancient history was boring with only a few light spots in the total darkness. A few people fell asleep as I saw or heard.
If you visit during the day, you will able to see more of the great structures. Also, you will see several avenues of human and ram-headed sphinxes more clearly over there, and it will give you more satisfaction.

Galabia vendors are every where because there are Galabia costume parties everywhere in Egypt ! Wow, that is some brilliant business idea to market Galabias !!! Here is a picture I took from one of the docks along the Nile in Luxor with a whole block of vendors waiting for tourists.

After challenging a local vendor for 15 minutes with my newly learned haggling skills (i am still a junior apprentice), I bought this Galabia dress & head band for 25 EL. Vendor asked me for a pen as a gift but when I asked what gift he would give me in return as my friend, he said "GOODBYE & peace be with you" many many times......
I guess my haggling skill was getting better, this Galabia dress started with an asking price of 150 EL without the head band ......Wow, I must be good.
The FORCE is strong with me ........
