Article 07 chapter journey: Luxor-door stone, Imperial Valley farmers, the Queen's Palace, the Temple of Luxor and the Kanak (bottom)

From Luxor Temple out we drove northward along the Nile, 10 minutes later arrived at the Kanak Temple.

If we are the high priest, in ancient times should be able to follow the Kanak temple outside the Sphinx Avenue through hole Su Temple here. However, now we have the good treatment, was sitting in the bus on the East coast along the Nile at the edge of the modern road arrive.

If the most beautiful temples in Egypt is Abu usimbe Temple, the Temple of the ritual is the Kanak Temple.

Egypt's most cattle X God in ancient Egypt's most cattle X Temple is the sacred to worship together this family of Kanak Temple was built in the Middle Kingdom, new Kingdom Eighteenth dynasty large plus extension, later nineteenth, twentieth dynasty and continue to increase. A Pharaoh investment building, followed by Pharaoh offends with wind, combined with the 18 to 20 dynasty coincided with the ancient Egypt's most wealthy period, this makes the Kanak Temple in terms of scale or Deluxe peak levels are:

General of the temple is a tower gate-ToFile Temple, Ah, Ah-Ruz Temple are this size.

This is the Kanak Temple tower gate stack Tower door, he owns 10 tower gate (East-West trending 6 seat, 4 seat).

General of the temple is a courtyard or bring post Hall, usually 20 to 30 Poles more root.

The Kanak Temple multi column Hall has 134 root circle pillars, the largest central 12 root, 23 m, 5 m in diameter, is Lotus-shaped roof, is the most ancient buildings of huge stone pillar.

General of the temple is dedicated to a God, even if the temptation to put God's wife and children for, these gods are placed in a temple.

This temple is the Kanak respectively to Hamon, Hamon's wife Mutlu, Hamon's son hole Susan individual built a completely separate temples!

Nana tours with our line of the temple towards West Kanak's main gate.

Can't imagine that's the ruins left by the three thousand years ago: often the Sphinx Avenue and extends into the temple, the whole six tall tower door row row senran listed in the past, base.more.

We walked along the Tower door left to go, there are three small temple room, storage room, Sun boat Sun boat is equipped with three statues in the true God of Cleopatra section of time out of the temple to accept people worship with drops.

And then into it to see the magic number of columns in the Hall.

Nana said that before these temples are the roof, in the column between stands a statue of Pharaoh, the Sun only from the temple on the top of the window, the entire Temple straight down and appear very dark, it is said that most people just get in, it will be this powerful deterrent, originally exists of a small mind here a scared what are account immediately. Now here is the "ruins", the roof is gone, but the number of columns in the Hall of columns, in addition to the main channel external pillars and the distance between the posts are 2, 3 m, except when the Sun at noon, the other still many pillars of Eclipse makes it light and dark. Sitting next to the columns, see the movement of the Sun and shadow of changing shizhu, spot in the column on the alternate location that is bright, Yin and Yang Yang, they let people walk in between is very easy to have a kind of trance. In the "discovering" film, a lens is the sunlight of the ocean, dozens of metres of seaweed from the seabed has been reaching out to the sea, the Sun Moonlight through sea water, forming a radiation off the bottom of the forest, the fish in the "giant tree" walk through between the seaweed, all the time. Somehow, XX sat Stone Edge, mind it surfaced this lens. Estimation of the Pharaohs design this Hall is to allow people to have the effect of suppressing the trance. Imagine, every time when Sunrise Red Sun first exposure to the Lotus of stigma, then gradually move down, the light changes constantly, bosses on the stone and the stone pillar of the illusion of continuous emerge from the darkness and sunk, really make people has unlimited tension and solemn Ah ~ ~ ~

Fans from the eyes at the top of the stone pillars, you will see the stone pillar of the top alternate is classic Lotus and paper flower shape Sedge, each pillar has put up an area of 20 square meters (that was a large one room!), it is estimated that each post can stand on top of the dozens of people it ~ ~ ~.

The movie "the tragedy of the Nile River to have a very classical lens, is that the rich man in the stone Hall in tours, suddenly there is a huge drop from the top of the stone pillar, I nearly hit to female millionaire is shooting here. Now I think about it, because this is a cinematic piece of detective 1980s XXZZ very young when I see a limited understanding of the film, I felt the plot twists and turns of tension, if put into the modern estimates quickly drown in box office war. However, no matter how the plot of the tension, and along the way the mystery of the exotic (now recall in Nile cruise and our ships are very similar, but it seems that "Canuck") are available at our young soul leaves an indelible impression ~ ~

Through the stone Hall, was soon seen two tall obelisk.

Obelisk in the temple, seen and felt in the square, in the Tower door doorway see Obelisk. The Obelisk is the crane, Crane Group, in the many tall buildings, two obelisk and towering clouds, as if our visitors will close up at them as though they like city of two skyscrapers (estimated at World Trade Center).

The two Obelisk is the legendary Queen of Kazakhstan mining Xie spectrum Sudal masterpiece, one of them (that is, from entry into the block on the left after) is full of Egypt in the obelisk stands the largest Obelisk — if lying is also included in the count, Aswan the unfinished Obelisk is the biggest, is also the works of the Queen.

Maximum of the height 29 metres Obelisk, in the modern may not high, but close at its feet, will make people think that down suction gasped – really very, veryImpressive! na let us note the color of the obelisk, which is divided into two colours, a section of the discussion above, following a partial red Aswan granite is more like a place of color. Originally, this Obelisk was later Matute Morse III occlusion with high walls, the Obelisk of hieroglyphics and write the sentence was "her as her father Hamon — two land Lord of the throne, her monuments, as he used the South hard granite built two large Obelisk, their surface plating on the world's best gold. When the sun rises between them, from the Nile River, the light shines on the Earth. Ah God, the Lord of the land of Queen's Bench: he let me domination black and Red land as a reward, throughout the land, not against me. All exotic races are my subjects, he will be days of marginal as my boundaries, Sun around everything to my work. He will give it all his own, he knew I would be all his reign. I really was his daughter, I waited on him, know all his tenor. I received from my father's reward is life, eternal and domination, in charge of all things, like Ruth Windrunner, God as long. "However exposed too, stay in the above text remaining in front of a praise Ah God sentences, followed on the Queen of Orthodox status text is masked in the back of the wall.

Almost all about Kanak Temple of text that figure-Morse III because give way to the Queen and the Obelisk occlusion.

But after a succession of XX in front of said, if you really should give way to the Obelisk thoroughly erased, if really give way, Queen Palace will not be possible after the death of the Queen to completion and retention so far. Map-Morse III in your own way to protect the existence of the Queen's merits, he appears to have with wall blocking the Obelisk without destroying it, to the Minister and priest's explanation is that there are "Obelisk praise Ah God's statement, we cannot erase"; he appears to have destroyed the Queen left a lot of relief but retains the Queen Queen statue Temple and, to the Minister and priest's explanation is that "these Queen like using the shape of the God Osiris, we cannot be destroyed". But who knows the Pharaoh's heart? if not his the stepmother to her daughter to marry him, how could he have the Pharaoh of old, if not he the stepmother in his young successor to continue holding court politics, pioneer frontier defeated South Nubian's attack, how could he take over smoothly in adult court politics, has been such a rich and prosperous country?, XX more willing to believe the figure-Morse III on the first Regency also direct the helm of affairs stepmother is grateful and love, only towards the Church and Government under the freedom of your own way silently protect her dignity.

After these two Obelisk then turn right and you will see a collapsed Obelisk, only some of the above — it is a masterpiece of the Queen.

In this position has "three best photo locations" Obelisk. For the love of photography "and get off at" Chinese tourists, here is a photo. So everybody's growth team, in the midst of the "Eggplant" acoustic sentries sentries after his image.

Collapse of the Obelisk is the opposite of Egypt retained most sculptures "scarab".

Was in the library or travel books to see when the stone is very significant that a shikelang, go to jinqian found but is a "crusty" size. Has confirmed one thing: only the person to the scene before you can find really like.

Hear the scarab stone very spiritual, around it around the seven rings can realize their aspirations, more cattle is said to pray for children's special wards.

XX no dare to go, one is not the desire, the second is afraid to go backwards not more depressed. Standing at the edge and found a beetle, only women in General, men are on edge. It is a modern society, the husband was also firmly believe that health is not a child just woman? XX on the edge of commonly asked a seemingly Chinese tourists (the wise knows that is a Taiwan people, at that time, his wife and then go ing), the old man hesitated said "I think what this thing looks like a BA", I am a big man to pray to the BA "? is it going to pray do eight?"

I faint ...

"BA", "scarab edge (East) is a" Heavenly Lake ".

ZZ swears that a party pool asked Nana, "this is Lake?", was the strong appreciation "Nana on! you are so clever!" because the Nana side only our two students to learn, take pictures of other people "go" ... Lake is the priest pray daily in Egypt before bathing and cleaning the priests holy places, the bottom is before Lake and River Nile connectivity, so is the living water. It is now a dead Lake, it is said that the Government of Egypt to water extracted each year to update again to once, to keep this tourist attractions to tourists.

Here, we will see the Kanak Temple full landscape is basically over.

XX and ZZ and around to the East of the temple the most traveled. East of the Tower door is all bad, only the remaining alone stands at the entrance of the rocks, much like the old Summer Palace of the Western building sites gave the impression. No trees shelter in the Temple of the sun shines on the gravel on the very harsh. The sand just drilled some spikey thorn-like plants, careful identification found actually is a good time to wear a Crown of thorns that the plants — apparently desert speciality!

Again to return to the main body of the temple, the parties have the time to carefully read the temple Tower doors and stone relief giant like on those.

There is no sunlight place also vaguely see the colors on the walls and the temple, the temple roof lying stone still remains a red murals in a temple of the sky to see Blue Sky God butenuth. Romantic and without losing the solemn.

Sitting in the stone Hall rest, go to a foreign middle-aged women — is clearly a man that had no guide, she asked whether we understand English confirmed reply just ask ZZ: "I saw from the book of ancient Egypt hieroglyphs is our countries of origin of the alphabet, but after I saw the text completely without feeling.

I think these type of image looks more like a Chinese hieroglyphs, does it not youState the origin of the text? "

Wow really asked to point Ah ~ ~ ~ to do an in-depth study of ZZ you wanted to teach me directly stall, quickly explain carefully: alphabet of a remarkable feature is the phonetic, also called Ruby, this is the righteousness of China table instead of hieroglyphs.

For example, the text in Chinese, a "bird" in the shape of the text indicates that the mean is bird meaning; in ancient Egypt of the text, a "bird" shape text only represents a letter, for example, is "A," but a complete meaning "bird" may need more letters to compose. This principle is now text constructs such as English such basic features of the language.

Elated after the end of the presentation, our Kanak Temple Tour is done.

Here to evaluate online classic summary next: ancient Chinese scholar's pursuit of astonishing realm, ancient Egypt, it is not astonishing pagoda, Temple is astonishing! floodwaters in the Kanak temple over an hour is definitely yet, there are many attractions to enjoy, Kanak Temple is needed to read!

Painted paper Sedge

Out of the Temple from the Kanak, we at Luxor Temple Tour ends!

Before their departure to the Red Sea, Nana guide we came to a very large sedge art shop paper.

Shop is very large, there is a two-story!, shop assistant will give us each a piece was marked with the "Order" write order paper: look for the picture, the picture directly on the code written on paper, with a number, and to the front of the checkout — very modern.

Ancient Egypt who created the Papyrus, and than Chinese invention is at least as early as 2000 years (it was 2000 years from now the Western Han dynasty era invention).

Although it is only a natural plant processing, in the strict sense that it is not a "paper", but in 2000 years ago, that is, after all, the most important of human civilization, is the ancient carrier Egypt's human civilization made a significant contribution.

And look at the front in Aswan, stone carving shop shop guide to take us to a worktable to explain our thin Papyrus production process: from paper sedge (looks like a green bamboo, slender, turquoise.

Egypt felt that paper sedge fine feathers at the top of the symbol of the Sun, and the triangular-shaped sections shows a pyramid. ) To remove part of the leaves and roots in the paragraph, to desired length, and then use a knife to stripped of outer, inner core of partial texture like bamboo shoot "spinal cord", this is making Papyrus of core material. Staff turn this whitening soft of as much as possible to cut into thin long strip, placed in clear water immersion, 5, 6 days after check out is white or beige, 12 days after check out is brown or Brown (it is said that the paper color just as collectors of hobby, the texture is the same). The day after the bubble good long pieces on wood, with wooden wand extrusion will water rolling out, and then cross a vertical a staggered a spell in gauze and cardboard; question to spell the desired paper size, then use gauze and cardboard Chuck phase, in iron plate machine under pressure after 3 days, a durable Papyrus was made.

The Papyrus can paint and write in it! Papyrus in human history the earliest and most convenient writing material for ancient records is one of the main carrier of Egypt's history.

Papyrus in dry conditions can maintain Millennium does not rot, once become ancient Egypt's most important export commodities, Greece, the Romans and the Arabs have been widely used, it is said that worldwide there are about 10 million sheets of papyrus documents saved so far. Latin papyrus description is "Papyrus", this is the English word "Paper". In Egypt on the second floor of the Museum staircase side wall hanging many unearthed with Papyrus ancient Egypt books written on calligraphy. Thousands of years ago by heritage, so crooked seven twisted eight hanging on the wall ...

It's like having a China tour of foreign tourists to purchase used paper art painting, in Egypt to buy used Papyrus art of Egypt.

We go to the straight walls hung with paper Sedge, mounting up picture box, it will retain the original Papyrus burrs, lighting design, colorful, magnificent,. Paintings of the main content is to copy the history of ancient Egypt who portrayed in Tablet and Tomb of classic designs on the walls. According to the paper's open range, texture and painting of artistic value, prices from dozens to thousands of dollars EGP.

Lucrative commodity sure someone will come to false, it is said that those versions sold on very cheap paper Sedge, basic is fake, like one or two El points to buy a ticket.

The so-called fake, is to paper sedge plants other than (for example bananas) stem and leaf paper, paintings are printed instead of hand-drawn (to identification is not a hand-painted, hand dip a little water to touch up the paint will know). Now that is really true, then the paper prices are relatively high. But relative to other Egypt tourist souvenirs (FL., stone carving, etc.), paper sedge art is definitely worth buying! shop also offers a special service, you can use the ancient Egypt hieroglyphs in paintings on your name.

No one will not be those who screen bright colors and full of Egypt exotic theme charm of painting, this is definitely a worthwhile purchase souvenirs and art works, if you only buy a "to this tour", small brands home will soon be left aside.

But paper sedge painting, mounting up and decorate their rooms, an excellent effect! and relative to other specialties, Egypt paper sedge painting price is still acceptable. In addition, price negotiable, buy more natural with concessions, ZZ and XX bought almost eight hundred Egyptian pounds of paper Sedge, 70% of turnover. To counter for painting, the shop assistant was expertly rolled up his paintings, into specialized art bin into our hands. Back to Beijing later when we put the bright paper sedge art gave the Bagua cousin and ZZ XX's sister, are they consistent praise.
