Photo showing the restoration work on a corner of the Hypostyle Hall in Luxor

The Great Hypostyle Hall in the precinct of Amon-Re is one of the most spectacular sights inside the Karnak temple. It has a total of 134 columns / pillars which supported a huge roof (which no longer exists). The total area of this hall is 50,000 square feet.
