The reminders of Egyptian Power from the past..
of course this picture was also found during Saturday "clean-the-desk-morning"..

We can't exactly remember where was it take but most probably it comes from Luxor.. if anyone recalls such view we would welcome any suggestions..

Podoba mi sie, fajne ujecie.

Witajcie.
Z historią mam kontakt prawie codziennie,a jednym z moich marzeń są odwiedziny w Państwie Faraonów. Ale patrząc na zdjęcie z tymi monumentalnymi kolumnami, myślę sobie..ech...no prawie już tam byłam:)Przynajmniej hieroglify są wyraźne i będę mogła coś ciekawego do poduszki poczytać;)
Pozdrawiam, Edyta

I agree it looks like the Karnak temple, the great hypostyle hall. I took a similar picture while I was there but yours demonstrates the details so much better!
