People give too much credit to the pyramids in Egypt. It's structurally impressive but there's nothing to do there but stare at stacked blocks.

Luxor & Aswan on the other hand is beautiful. There are some temples there that blew my mind, very intricate and well made. I also never realized how big the nile river was until I got on top of a ship there, it's very wide.
