Egypt-Luxor-Karnak-temple-of-Amun-avenue- - E...
 |
The avenue of goat-headed sphinxes used to lead from the Karnak temple complex to Luxor temple: a distance of 1.2 miles (2km). There were a lot of sphinxes, but many have eroded to oblivion. The little figure between each sphinx's front legs is meant to be Ramesses II.
