ancient Thebes
is the famed Sound & Light Show in the great temple
complex of Karnak
As visitors arrive after sunset at the first pylon
and walk through the magnificent hypo style hall they are treated to the

and
lights and images played on the ancient walls
The experience continues
as they reach their seats
and view the culmination of the spectacle on the ancient stones across the sacred lake
