The Great Hypostyle Hall

Egypt is full of truly magnificent historical attractions.

One of the most fascinating sites I visited while in the country was the temple of Karnak located in Luxor, Egypt. Though the entire complex was memorable, the great hypostyle hall was what really made me gasp – these pillars are HUGE!
