View of the structures of different sizes and shapes in the Karnak temple in Luxor

The temple at Karnak seems beaten and worn down by time, when you look at this structure. This is after you have passed the initial set of walls at the entrance of the temple, but you still have to admire the magnificence of the temple complex. You can see people passing through the passage between the structures of the temple, and in the distance, you can see the Obelisk in the gap between the walls.
