Caption: | Egyptian Luxor street residential flats apartments balconies stylish modern architectureEgyptian influence found along this long straight road Sharia al-Mahatta from just behind Luxor Temple and facing the elegant and modern railway station façade. We were dropped here before entering the station and boarding the main Aswan to Cairo train for a visit to the Minya area. One aspect of the traffic management that I thoroughly approved were the traffic lights at junctions with a clock showing how soon to the change of lights. |
