The Ancient World
Statues of pharoah alternate with columns in the Court of Ramses II at Luxor Temple, Egypt. The lights come on at nightfall, adding drama to the passages and courtyard within the temple. Dedicated to the Theban triad of Amun-Min, Mut, and Konsu, Luxor Temple stands in the center of town and is illuminated every night. © Rick Collier
