 Medinet Habu Temple First Court Wall Reliefs Carvings Dignatories Costumes located on the West Bank of the River Nile at Luxor and a complex of temples is now dominated by the mortuary temple of Ramasses 111. Apart from being in excellent condition generally, the first court in this photograph does not offer some of breathtaking coloured reliefs of the first but has better preserved Osiride figures and many reliefs on the interior walls. Not included in most standard tour packages, this temple is worth the effort to be visited privately.

Alexandria Catacombs eg9614011jhp 
 Egypt Alexandria Kom al-Shawqaiah catacombs passageway carved Sobek cloak guard Roman Mediterranean is no longer reminiscent of the ancient city from Pharaonic times and little of that ancient time remains. A few isolated sites can be visited and this is called Kom es-Shogafa, also spelt es-Shoquafa, al-Shawqaiah a necropolis of catacombs and ongoing archaeology. The garden area of this site has many exhibits including sarcophagi, carved capitals as well as a reconstructed Tombs, this one is known as Tigrane [Tigran] rescued from construction work in Tigrane Pasha Street in 1952. The style of decoration in this tomb is particularly important as it shows the blending of the major influences in the City’s history-Egyptian, Greek and Roman. The City has a distinctly European rather than Egyptian feel to it; it is sometimes offered as a day trip on a Cairo package but is seldom part of the main Nile packages. I hired my own taxi and the driver was sufficiently knowledgeable to take me to the main ‘ancient’ sites I could manage in a few hours.
