As an Egyptian, ancient Egyptian history fascinates me! It’s so interesting to think that Egypt was once one of the most powerful civilizations in the world, especially when one thinks of Egypt’s current state.but, anyway that is not the case here.
My fascination with their history is their advancement in so many fields such as: geometry,astronomy,medicine, and of course architecture.especially since they lived thousands of years ago and that there is a lot we do not know about them up to this day.
But what intrigues me the most is their architecture and the fact that it was constructed and built using simple machines and tools. One of my favorite places is the karnak temple complex.there is a certain allure to the place. It served me as a source of many inspirations even though I only went there a couple of times (and it always managed to be extremely hot.) but, there is just something about being in a place that old,that just takes your breath away. You could almost see how it looked originally with all of its colors and beauty. And that is when the thought hits you, you are standing in the same place that these amazing people used to frequent and seeing the same things that they were seeing. you get to share the scorching sun’s heat on your back with some stranger though different millenniums. It's almost like traveling in time! Which is my favorite thing about ancient architecture
