 Minya Egyptian street cars traffic lights green night clock time exposure taken from the hotel overlooking the River Nile as the base for visiting the sites of Bani Hasan and Amarna. There was a pleasant walk along the promenade and it was also seeing the modern streets at night especially with the unusual clock counters showing a countdown to when the lights would change. We stayed in the Mercure Hotel Nefertiti, an aging hotel which had seen better days and it overlooked the newer chalet type complex called Hotel Aten.
