Karnak originally derived from Arabic: Khurnaq "fortified village", commonly known as the Karnak Temple Complex, is a large collection of temples, pylons, chapels, and other structures in various states of disrepair located near Luxor, Egypt. Most of the surviving structures from the complex belong to the New Kingdom, which began under the reign of Senusret I (reigned 1971-1926 BCE) in the Middle Kingdom (approximately 2000-1700 BCE). Ipet-isut ("The Most Chosen of Places") was the name given to the territory around Karnak during the 18th dynasty of ancient Egypt, and it served as the primary temple for the Theban Triad, which was headed by the god Amun. It was listed on the UNESCO World Heritage List in 1979 along with the rest of the great city of Thebes. Located 2.5 km (1.6 mi) north of Luxor, the modern settlement of El-Karnak gets its name from the neighboring and partially encircled Karnak complex.
The mortuary temple of Hatshepsut, also known as the Temple of the Holy of Holies (Egyptian: sr-srw), was constructed during the reign of Pharaoh Hatshepsut of the Eighteenth Dynasty of Egypt. Situated across the Nile from Luxor, this structure is a must-see for anybody interested in ancient architecture. Built into the cliffs of Deir el-Bahari, its three enormous terraces tower high over the sands below. Her pyramidal tomb, El Qurn, sits atop a mountain range that also contains her tomb, KV20. One kilometer (0.62 miles) to the east, at the desert's edge, is the valley temple that is linked to the main complex via a causeway. Across the Nile, the entire building faces Hatshepsut's most famous addition to the Temple of Karnak: the enormous Eighth Pylon, from which the procession of the Glorious Festival of the Valley set out.
