Luxor comes alive at night

"The night time in Luxor is a magical and mesmerising experience. As the sun sets, the city comes alive with the soft glow of streetlights and lanterns illuminating the ancient monuments and temples.
"In the old town, you may hear the sounds of the occasional call to prayer from the local mosques, as well as the sound of the muezzin calling the faithful to prayer. You may also hear the sounds of people walking and talking in the narrow, winding streets, and the occasional sound of doors opening and closing.
"Overall, the soundscape of nighttime in the old town of Luxor is a mix of the sounds of the city, the Nile River, and the occasional sounds of nocturnal animals, creating a peaceful and atmospheric atmosphere."
