Luxor stands on the site of ancient Thebes, where millennia of sacred architecture line both banks of the Nile. The temples of Karnak and Luxor on the east bank and the tombs of the Valley of the Kings on the west make it one of the great sacred landscapes of the ancient world.

  3. Bring someone who'd like itA friend who asks too makes it easier for a facilitator to say yes.
  4. Nobody sees who asked or who follows. Facilitators see a count, never names.

The sacred life of Luxor

History

Thebes was the religious capital of ancient Egypt for much of the New Kingdom and the centre of the worship of Amun, whose vast temple complex at Karnak was expanded over some two thousand years. Ancient Thebes and its necropolis are a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

Why it’s sacred

A place where the sacred was built on a scale few civilisations have matched; the Abu Haggag Mosque, set within Luxor Temple, shows how prayer has continued on the same ground.

Questions about practising in Luxor

Do I need to book, or can I turn up?
Book. Rooms have limited capacity and the free evenings often fill faster than the paid ones, because nothing is risked by registering.
I've never been to anything like this — is that okay?
Look for the first-timer mark. Every listing that carries it has answered the questions a newcomer is afraid to ask. Plenty in Luxor are made for a first visit.
What if the price is the obstacle?
Many gatherings here are free, and some facilitators offer a sliding scale — pay what you can, no questions asked, and no one sees what you chose.
How do I hear about new dates?
Follow a facilitator and you're told when they open something in Luxor. No other notification is sent unless you ask for it.
Is everything in person?
No — some gatherings are held online, and each listing names its format and, for online ones, the time zone.
