Visitors exploring ancient---Egypt tour () Lo into out of 8, two days of the Red Sea

Rich April day, escape the city noise and impetuous, flying and wants to explore the long-standing mystery – Egypt.

As one of the four great ancient civilizations of Egypt, with 7000 years of history, with generous cultural implication, has a romantic exotic, like a beautiful woman in the parcel, yarn cage and fascinating and mysterious.

While we are full of expectation to open the mysterious corner, at a glance South·¼èýson.

Although, in the eyes of the world, Egypt has been to mysterious pyramids, Sphinx and the world's largest open-air museum is famous, but in fact, more than her charm.

Egypt tours, not only make our longing awaited historical monuments amazing, let us all into a humanistic Egypt, scenic, historical, and feel the nature of the uncanny, thoughtful, and peaceful desert, deep clear sea, vast ancient Eastern Mediterranean.

This is a colour contrast defined, and the "half water, half of the Kingdom of the flame".

The following please follow me recall we saw and heard, because really what many reluctant to put aside, all want to have fine leaves unfold to you, may be more verbose, but also often to topic, you have to have patience.

First day in Shanghai--Doha--Luxor

With a great emotion, we have embarked on a journey.

This flight, we take the Qatar Airways ' Airbus. Really lives up to its name, brand new, advanced facilities and services in place, but on a long trip thanks to Airbus offers sumptuous meals and one of the TV menu assortment of entertainment, from our trip and the boredom and tired.

Before and after more than ten hours of flight, in the tens of thousands of feet above, developed from the stars and the moon-phase-to-dawn sunrise.

Aerial view of the scenery changes in half asleep, watched the dawn.

The second day, the Temple of Luxor and Luxor Kanak Temple

After Doha, finally landing in Egypt in Luxor.

The difference between China and Egypt is 6 hours, therefore, we at local arrived at half past 9 (plus the transfer time is around 15 hours in total). Access to the airport there are many currency exchange locations, the day the premium is 1 dollars 5.5 El lbs, so they are consistent Exchange 50 dollars (special requirements for Exchange a small amount of coins to tipping), and finally found the money in Egypt more than petty is full.

The airport is not large, the door easier.

Far saw a strong build, beard of Egypt men, already waiting at the Terminal, it is true that this is the keynote of Muscovy stroke high Dawei (he doesn't like people call him as a tour guide, he would rather we treat him as a friend), this is a great quality in China. It is said that local tour guides are Bachelor degree, mostly historical and archaeological profession, so that they can not only talking to us about local attractions, culture, history and tradition, but also very humorously in Chinese with ridicule. This is a memorable one, so we're back for so long, you will still be able to imitate one out of his accent "Dear Habibi".

Sitting in the domestic manufacture of Yutong buses, lenses are already at the scenery.

Airport it is a beautiful flowered and not broad road. Putting a spring of things, there is already wearing good short-sleeved t-shirt. Today's temperature is 32 °, David tells us, now is the spring of Egypt. Our help young in subtropical climate, it is summer, but Egypt's summer temperatures reach 50 ° high, thought that it was not long here, otherwise no Aboriginal people get into African white face will be baked into the Mummy.

Bus into town, the ancient temple ruins and Nile's picturesque let everyone weep.

Luxor is an ancient city after the period of "Thebes", has been in operation for four thousand years of history, the equivalent of Xi'an, China. Egypt has had four States, according to the times successively, Memphis, Luxor, Alexandria, Cairo. The new Kingdom, 18th Dynasty Thebes to heyday, cross-strait across the Nile River in the city, it is said that at the time of Thebes densely populated, guangsha thousands, Gates has 100 seats, Homer in here as the "city of a hundred doors" is the largest city in the world. In the nearly 700 years, the Pharaohs from Egypt on this "pearls" command, so that the ancient Egypt's political and economic reach the peak of the brilliant, South Sudan, and Syria, a bounded across East Eastern Mediterranean region, North Africa, West Asia's first power. Here Pharaoh expanding their empire, and built numerous temples and huge tombs. 88 years BC. Ancient Egypt Empire lasted many years, successive 1500 and Pharaoh King in Thebes built countless temples, palaces and tombs.

Now the Luxor is the world's largest open-air museum, has a "city of palaces".

Nile wear city, it is split in two. Since ancient Egypt people believe that human life, with the sun rises in the East, West and East of the River is the magnificent temples and vibrant neighborhood, river of the West Bank is a Pharaoh, the Queen and the Royal Mausoleum. "Living city" and "dead city" across the River to form the two worlds of the eternal cycle of circle.

Then we were taken to the local best family restaurant, honest standards equivalent of China's four star rating.

However a good geographical position, at Nile coast, flowers, water and construction. Cuisine is tourism provides meal six dishes and a soup, although not tasty, but prepared in advance, or you can eat to appetite.

In the afternoon, we first came to Luxor and monuments in the most compelling Kanak Temple and the Temple of Luxor.

After thousands of years, the old grand palaces and temples are turned into a residual traces of broken wall, but people still want to see from them was cut, they are highly developed civilization of ancient Egypt.

Nowadays the ancient building complex in Luxor, save up to full, the largest is the Kanak Temple.

It's up to the Palace occupies an area of 5000 square meters,There are 134 root cylindrical tower in days, of which the Middle 12 root high 21 m, five were not folded, beautifully embossed tiles throughout.

Kanak Temple and Luxor Temple within 1 km, the road.

Two temples have many similarities, that came back to distinguish between the two photos have spent a great deal of time.

Obelisk (obelisk) is the ancient Egypt's other masterpiece, is the worship of the ancient Egypt, the monument of the Sun is in addition to the pyramid, the most ancient civilizations of Egypt distinctive symbol.

Obelisk form is Spire side columnar, bottom-up are shrinking, top likeness pointed pyramid, often with gold, copper or silver alloy parcels when Sunrise photos to Tablet-tip, it is like the dazzling sun. Monument height, generally slender ratio 9 ~ 10: 1, block made of granite. The tablet was carved pictographs of incised or inlaid decoration pattern. Ancient Egypt of the Obelisk was a large number of handling to Western countries.

In the temple, we see the prehistoric Egypt — Graham Francis II.

Graham Francis II was Egypt's history, the famous Pharaoh, about in-time 1304 to b.c. 1237 years BC. He lived in Egypt national built a lot of temples, many survived.

Graham Francis II is also the greatest Pharaoh Egypt, he is a great architect, is also a great warrior.

During his rule in Egypt for 66 years total hygiene 100 children. Graham Francis II CE meets who total 8 official wife, there are nearly 100 concubine. He died in 1212, b.c., died at the age of 90. He stood at the foot of the sculpture is his my dear Nikos Phil Tully (Nefertari), it is sufficient to prove his love for her. Graham Francis built temples for her also carved wrote her verses, expression of love for her. , Phil Tully's pedigree, historians have two different view. A way of saying that she is inherited sakaltutan scammon's Pharaoh ' granddaughter, another hypothesis says that she is Thebes hereditary aristocracy of women. Regardless of whether the claim is correct, and we know that at least, Phil Tully (Nefertari) born in noble, Egypt from the Delta RAM Sith family, the girl's family brilliant on Egypt's women, was honoured by the ruling class most of Thebes noble support and consolidate in Egypt forces on. Strictly speaking, the Sith and Phil Tully (Nefertari) this marriage of young couples, starting in political purposes. Rather, Phil Tully (Nefertari) unexpected breathtaking charm and wit, really conquered Graham Francis's heart.

, Phil Tully (Nefertari) in RAM before it throne Sith, about a 15-year-old left-right to marry him and give him the birth of the first Prince.

In later years, she gave birth to RAM the Sith for at least three sons and two daughters. According to the display in the murals, Phil Tully has many titles, including "the most favourite", "charm, sweet and loving owner," and "mistress of upper and lower Egypt," and "Pharaoh's principal", "subject to" mu has visited.

Graham Francis had is she wrote that: "the sun shines for her," and "my love for her unique---no one and she matched, because she is the owner of the most beautiful one.

I'm from her past, she has stolen my heart. "There are legends about him as she said it was" my Egypt's Pharaoh, I can give you everything you want, if it is reasonable, then you want one, I'll give you a second and, if it is not reasonable, then I do an UN-reasonable monarch to meet you. "Write these words do not like is the God of Pharaoh, General commanding more like falling in love with the young people at the beginning.

More RAM to the Sith she dumped, the Palace of others by her charm of the conquest.

Someone once described her like this: "talk to her about anything pleasurable; whether she wants to do good things, it'll do for her; she said the words, sounds are so pleasing. "Nikos Phil Tully divinely beautiful let her live when it is considered to be written by God, in Egypt, her charisma and Pharaoh's favourite give her no rights.

Unfortunately the sirens hangs, Phil Tully in 30-year-old died, although she did not accompany him through this life, but died in love before, in fact, is a happy, but her premature death made her become Pharaoh's heart forever.

Over the next several thousand years, their Temple in Nile Fawan. She is his first, and it is final.

Every day despite the East first light drilled from the Earth, the Sun God Shikelang is the incarnation of the soul, and symbolizes the resurrection and eternal life.

Thus the ancient Egypt people use it as their own charm. It is said that people walk around it, can on seven rings with your family. See, a lot of people believe in it.

In the evening, we were staying to Luxor's Sheraton Hotel.

The hotel is located in the Nile, with beautiful scenery, we experience a sunset, rosy of coconut island sunset.

Dinner is another Chinese meal, with noon dishes like, they basically will burn a handful of dishes.

After dinner, next to the hotel for a small walk, not very attractive commodity, so early back room to rest.

The third day of Luxor Emperor Valley, sea pocher Sudal Queen temples, statues, Bangladesh agricultural 3.5 hour transfer to the Red Sea

In the midst of exotic far and pious prayers sound to wake up to find himself has in alien.

Chime prayer acoustic whatmore distant loved ones and everything going well. Pick up the watch at, Bugs Bunny, then resting, lying there in the English, enjoy now considered suicide, now scrambling, now rhythm bright ...

Admire in the Koran's appeal and Islam for their dedication and perseverance.

A little clock in the morning to nine in the evening, there were five times a day of prayer, worship, noon hour daylight into the afternoon sun worship, West, nursing, dusk evening twilight worship, worship into night. To do so every day, without interruption, the magic of belief. In a few days, we often find David will take you high rest disappearFor a moment, then know that he is doing the prayers.

Mosques in Egypt is seen everywhere, every mosque is built very beautiful, is not the same as the size of all the Muslim life's most important activities in one place.

With a pineapple sheath of half spherical building squat, two high minaret, proudly proclaimed standing, with a solemn Koran clearly distinct from the surrounding buildings. Comparison of Egypt's residence was a major departure from Egypt's buildings are mostly uncompleted appearance, not paint the walls, no roof House, outer wall, enveloped all tired, in grey and sand. Foot visible, God in their own high status, they pay more attention to the dead and the life in the future.

Today's first attraction is the famous "West Nile Valley of the Kings", some equivalent of China's Ming tombs.

And Luxor and other modern city across the River in a vast desert is the ancient Egypt's capital Thebes. It is situated in the Valley of the Kings from Thebes site not far away a piece of uninhabited Limestone Gorge. Here are 64 seater Imperial mausoleum, the existing 17 opening to the outside world.

We chose one of the three Tomb, vaults entrance often open halfway, there is a small channel depths to the catacombs, the form base class, the slope is very steep with ladder channel pass-through mausoleum, Tomb room corridor, wall and ceiling is covered with frescoes, ornate, channel two walls of the patterns and hieroglyphics still very clear.

After thousands of years old and still be able to see such a gorgeous color and vivid portrayals, really hard to imagine. Indoor several catacombs, the mummy of granite sarcophagus docked at last a grave. There are grave more luxury, we laugh as few rooms some rooms even Villa; some are very simple, only one bedroom and one living room, speculation about the rise in position the emperors of the decline of different generations. Now the treasure of the Valley of the Kings have long been grabbing looters, but the most amazing treasure is the modern archaeologists Howard · Carter discovered sakaltutan scammon dead mask, has now been transferred to the Cairo Egypt Museum collection, in the last day of El Bo we witnessed sakaltutan card masked the exquisite luxury.

Imperial Valley is not allowed to take photos, so interested friends or have the necessary experience.

Next, we visited the sea pocher Sudal Queen Temple, ancient Egypt haipu Chester is one of the three beautiful women, and also the history of Egypt's first Queen, Queen Empress of China are similar.

She was the Pharaoh Matute Morse a world women figure-Morse II of mother and sister and wife, Terry Morse III stepmother. 30 years old, her husband illustration-Morse II died, Throne Matute Morse III less than 12 years of age, haipu Sudal nature became Regent in "acting behind the scene" for three years, announced himself as Pharaoh, disguised, has been ruled Egypt for 20 years. She bit period attaches great importance to peace with its neighbours, through trade diplomacy and now the Somali region of trade exchanges, to get the flavors. These scenes are also reflected in the burial Rite Temple murals. Temple of mass building, in the political hub placement the loyal and trusted. As the figure-Morse III of adult, these cronies have been out of favour. Near Queen figure has disappeared, do not know whether it was a natural death or assassination. Map-Morse III again after the ruling's expedition in Asia, and rampaged Queen statue, from a variety of relief, the Queen of the inscription to remove images and names, etc. to eliminate people on the Queen's memory. Haipu Sudal shrine built on cliffs, in an elegant effect shows its long-term ruled by. The temple is divided into three levels, a large number of sculptures and murals record her and Egypt's history.

Sea pocher Sudal Queen Temple because a touching love story and let it become lively, not just a hole, you can imagine the character, the Queen and the architect.

The tomb is a devoted her architect wiped all the painstaking effort created specially for lovers, so it's unique style. Look from a distance, magnificent three-story building stands on the hillside, let the amazing! its special terrain, or "Feng Shui" excellent, it is located in the desert, but down from the distance, the long yellow sand, between green green farmland faces of the Queen's Tomb. The designer of the Temple of the Queen was Sarai, South Mutlu is Egypt's history after the Naim Hua Tai Po after the most famous architects, he's another rare of Egypt is the most magnificent temple of Karnak Temple.

Next, we went to the door agricultural giant statue (Colossi of Memnon), and hurried and they close the shadow.

Colossus is located in West Nile and Imperial Valley between fields. The original "Amin Ho Töpfer (AMENHOTEP) III" Pharaoh's statue in front of the temple, the temple itself has no trace. Giant like 20 metres high, weathering, facial recognition have been unavailable. Seated by the new era of the Kingdom of the flowering of the almond-Dutch too Cape III. Seated behind him, was his burial Rite Temple, but later Pharaoh demolish the building, and to him as his building of stone. The Ptolemy dynasty era, the building is completely destroyed.

People think that stone is Greece myth door Nong's statue, named for stone door farmers alike.

Roman reign of earthquake caused the statue appeared cracks. Whenever the wind, the door farmers like like singing, very magical. But later patched after door farmers like, never sing songs.

Subsequently, 3.5 hours drive, to the meters long-awaited dream the Red Sea.

The Red Sea is located in Northeast Africa and the Arabian Peninsula, between the long and narrow shape, from Northwest to Southeast 1900 km length, maximum width 306 km, an area of 45 000 square kilometres.

North Fork into two small Bay, West to Suez, and runs through the Suez isthmus of Suez Canal and the Eastern Mediterranean; East to Aqaba Gulf, is the world's water temperature and salinity as one of the most high waters. The average surface temperature for August 27 to 32 degrees Celsius and the water temperature of this quarter is only around 25 degrees. How is the Red Sea, the blue-green is the color of the daydream, structured, in depth, in some areas because of the Red seaweed flourishes and reddish-brown, Red Sea, a callMay stem from this.

Long distance, we have moved into the Red Sea Hotel Al-nabila Grand Makady.

This is the House occupies a large, with unbeatable sea views of five-star hotel, we were far away from the main building (room facilities compared to regular), downstairs is a post, a 5-minute bus journey to Hotel Central.

Standing under the strain of the journey, we can't wait to put on a swimsuit, rush to embrace of the clear blue ocean, but the Red sunset seems to be down so quickly, and so we arrived at the swimming pool and the beach, the Sun has been falling into the sea, on the lower water temperature, cold, think if you go on, will be frozen out of a cold, so only cursory and taste the hotel landscape.

Night, brightly, Coon halls desks and chairs, frame up the grill.

The lightness and seafood BBQ thick breathe, our coveted. So, quickly return to the room for good things, to the restaurant. Preferred is a seafood barbeque, and then the colorful West point, the basin was quickly piled up the Hill, sit down and taste. It is regrettable that the seafood is fresh, not frozen, the very memory of Hainan's seafood restaurant. Although the food is not beauty, after all, food choices, talk over dinner, while appreciating the King of time every minute and kept refreshed at last was a eat sausage leaning on belly.

Considering the second day, we all chose the Guide recommended two optional items, so that early back room to rest.

One-day tired so we quickly saw the sunshine.
