Allée des Sphinx dates back to around 380 BC and is a avenue of human headed sphinxes - the body of a lion and with the head of king Nectanebo. The avenue is 2.7 kilometers long and leads to Luxor Temple.

Do & See

Like so many of the towns and cities of Egypt, Hurghada as well as Luxor and Marsa Alam are living history museums. These three cities are positioned as three corners of a triangle in the Eastern Desert with plenty to offer both together and separately.
