Medinet Habu is located outside the tourist circuit, which is very good thing if you have atemple in a quiet area to visit. Personally I think this temple one of the finest monumentsof the West Bank, not only because of its huge size but also by the good his state. Use that this temple in the early morning visit.

Opposite the entrance is the Habu rest house with an adjacent hotel of the same name that are both operated by the same owner. On the terrace you have a magnificent viewof the temple complex. The prices of food and drinks are really dirt cheap because theherds toeristenvee still not settled. Tasty mint or anise tea costs only the incredible priceof 3 EP. 25 EP for you and tasty lamb or beef skewer with rice, bread or chips.Remarkable is the fact that the price list here on a clear position was hung and veryeasy to read. This is a rarity in Egypt. The staff is extremely friendly and it's never a rushas people in other tourist places. Medinet Habu I can recommend as an extended trip inthe morning if you stay a few days in Luxor.
