Avenue of Sphinxes, Luxor

Avenue of Sphinxes, Luxor
Human-headed sphinxes line the processional road that ran about 2.7 kilometers from Luxor Temple to Karnak. Once a year, in the Opet festival, the image of Amun was carried along it between the two temples. After decades of excavation the whole route was cleared and reopened with a televised parade in November 2021, so you can now walk from one temple to the other.
