Luxor, Egypt

The nausea I felt along the way to Luxor suddenly disappeared in an instant covered by a mixed sense of joy and awe at the rocky valley that stood firmly in Luxor. The modern city on the east and west banks of the Nile in northern Egypt, the former location of Thebes, another famous capital of ancient Egypt.

This is one of the reasons why I was so irritated when Valter intended to return to Munich, because to my knowledge the beautiful historical story about Egpyt is not in a metropolitan area, but in a small town that was used as the center of civilization during ancient times.
