The charm of the Luxor Temple sent on July 17, 2017 (11:36) by Annamaria Pertosa. 90 comments, 2194 views.

at 25mm, 1/60 f/4.0, ISO 400, hand held. Luxor, Egypt.

Ho visitato parecchie volte questo tempio, ma se volete davvero provare emozioni e suggestioni autentiche che, vi avvolgeranno in un'aura di mistero e fascino esotico, dovete andarci al calar del sole, quando nell'aria si spandono profumi d'incenso, e in lontananza si sente il canto del muezzin che richiama i fedeli alla preghiera, e il tempio con gli ultimi raggi del sole, sembra incendiarsi. Come al solito, ho trovato utile, dare qualche cenno storico su questa antica meraviglia dell'antico Egitto. Costruito in riva al Nilo e circondato dalla città moderna, il Tempio di Luxor (l'antica Tebe) è uno dei più affascinanti monumenti dell'antico Egitto, elegante esempio di architettura faraonica. Dedicato al dio Amon. Il tempio di Luxor si è conservato bene grazie alla sabbia che lo ricopriva e il villaggio di Luxor che si sviluppò al di sopra delle antiche strutture. Nel 1881 fu scoperto in ottime condizioni dall'archeologo Gaston Maspero, che prima di poter iniziare gli scavi fu costretto a richiedere di spostare l'intero villaggio. Arrivando al tempio, il pilone principale d'avanti al'entrata è decorato con scene della vittoria di Ramses II sugli ittiri, nella battaglia di Qadesh. Davanti al pilone c'erano in origine sei colossali statue di Ramesse II e due obelischi. Nel XIX secolo uno dei obelischi fu spostato a Parigi nella Piace de la Concorde, dono al popolo francese da patte dell'allora presidente egiziano Mohammed Ali. E citando, Ramses II, non è da meno ricordare che fu proprio Ramsete il faraone che fece completare il tempio che, a circa cento anni dall'inizio dei lavori, raggiunse così la sua massima espansione. Vale la pena segnalare che il tempio di Luxor è l'unico tempio in Egitto ad esibire i simboli di due soli faraoni sulle sue strutture architettoniche. Critiche, commenti e consigli sempre super graditi. Grazie.
