“these monuments were not built on the scale of men but on the scale of gods.” She nailed it. The ancient sights in Egypt are so over the top huge it is hard to get your head around. In fact, we found we could stare at them all day and still not comprehend what we had seen. They are not just huge but every inch of these enormous monuments are covered in detailed writing and pictures. 
We could not believe the sheer numbers of tourists arriving by the busload and we could not believe how easy it was to escape the throngs and get a temple to yourself by walking about fifty feet off the path. A couple off the tour circuit we literally had to ourselves. We could not believe the amount of hassle you get from Egyptians in and around these sights. Be that as it may, there are things to see in Egypt that have been boggling the minds of travelers for thousands of years.
