Luxor, Egypt: The Karnak Temple Complex - Rick Steves’ Europe Travel Guide - Travel Bite

Watch the full episode of "Rick Steves Egypt" - airing across the US on public television, or streaming (free!) at www.ricksteves.com/watch-read... Karnak was the most important place of worship in ancient Egypt. This sprawling temple complex was built over many centuries during the New Kingdom period, when most of the great pharaohs ruled. Rather than for the public, Karnak was reserved only for royals, priests, and the gods. But today, anyone can explore the site's impressive ruins. #ricksteves #ricksteveseurope #karnak

Guess how long this would take with power tools and gas generated equipment and machines ? So how the F did they do this without any knowledge of combusts-able engines or anything to creat power? I’m not a tin hat guy but come on actually look at the stuff from Egypt with your own eyes and u can come to the conclusion that they had some kind of knowledge the equivalent to machines or energy cuz how else would the drill into rose granite

Although our family has been watching you for years, I never thought to subscribe. I am only here today because we saw on KZbin that you are endorsing Joe Biden. One of the truly wonderful things about your programs is that you stayed out of the political realm. As of today, you have just lost us as viewers. When the programming we enjoy publicizes where they stand politically, regardless if Right, Middle or Left, we want no part of their views on anything as it will almost always be slanted. It's been great knowing you.

[@davesaunders7080]

There will be a long line of youtube content providers you will be leaving the same comments on. Rather just say we want no part of their views on anything as it will almost always be slanted if we know how they vote, and if we don't know how they vote we can't enjoy the content.
