Photography rules vary by tomb; flash is often prohibited to protect pigments, so bring a camera with good low-light capability and follow guide instructions.
Luxor occupies the ancient city of Thebes, a political and religious capital of the New Kingdom where pharaohs constructed tombs and temples between the 16th and 11th centuries BCE.
