При жизни владельца Мединет-Абу был окружен каналом, сразу за которым стояли две сторожевые башни, построенные фараоном. Канал до наших дней не сохранился, башни - вполне. Рамзес III был очень воинственен и провел множество сражений за пределами страны. Во время военных походов в Сирию оборонительные сооружения сирийцев понравились фараону, и вернувшись домой он приказал построить похожие при входе в свой дворец. Мединет-Абу

This beautiful temple is usually visited if you stay more than 2 days in Luxor. Do not skip the temple as it is very beautiful and has many coloured scenes preserved on its walls.

Understated Temple; worth a visit only 35Le to get in. Take a walk around the outside walls of the temple as the scenes are amazing. Go early to avoid the day tour buses that arrive around 11am - 12pm
