Excellent article on the Al Ahram website by Serene Assir about the sites to see in Luxor. Much more informative than the usual travel pieces, this helps to bring Luxor, and particularly the West Bank, to life: " There is little that can calm the restlessness of the human spirit more than the direct experience of a location whose very soul speaks of eternity. Once known as Thebes, the ancient capital of the Pharaonic New Kingdom, Luxor transcends the limits of time and power, revealing, with astounding artistry that when all things come to pass, only beauty remains. Luxor also serves as a fascinating testament to different civilisational trends infusing with each other in a way which is as uncanny as it is vivid and extraordinary." See the above article for the full story.
