Karnak Temple

What vocabulary to describe the impression of Karnak Temple? The four words 'majestic' should be the most appropriate. The tall pillars, the tall statues, express the unparalleled worship and respect of Egypt's pharaohs and ordinary people for the god Amun. This largest temple in Egypt was built by several generations of pharaohs of the Middle and New Kingdoms. It contains obelisks, a column hall, standing statues of Ramses II, and beautiful patterns and hieroglyphs carved on pillars, walls, and statue bases. This temple built more than 3900 years ago is definitely one of the most brilliant treasures in the long history of mankind!
