Karnak Temple

Karnak Temple I went there because I wanted to see the view in the first photo. It was a temple built to dedicate to Amun, the guardian deity of Thebes. Later, when Thebes became the capital of Egypt, Amun was syncretized with the sun god Ra and became the supreme god of the state, Amun-Ra, and attracted the worship of the people. At that time, the temple was the residence of the gods and the residence of the king who was in charge of rituals. It is said that it also served as a school to teach medicine, astronomy, and other subjects. There is a superstition that if you walk around the scarab (dung beetle) statue three times counterclockwise, your wish will come true. There are theories that depending on the number of times you walk around it, it will bring about love, marriage, prosperity in business, business, and financial luck. #WorldHeritage #KarnakTemple #Egypt #EgyptTrip #Luxor
