View of tourists walking through the Karnak temple in Luxor

A view of tourists walking through the Karnak temple in Luxor. Here in the photo, you can see a number of circular pillars in the background, rising high in the sky. The pathway is not very wide, just enough for a few people walking side by side. It looks massive and magnificent though, especially if you consider that the place was built around 35 centuries back.
