Tutankhamun's Egypt (1972)

S1E4 The Temple

Apr 23, 1972 Season 1 Episode 4 Documentary

The banks of the Nile are home to some of the most magnificent structures ever created—the temples of ancient Egypt. The grand entrance of the Edfu temple towers higher and broader than the front of St Paul's Cathedral, while at Karnak, towering columns in the main hall leave visitors feeling small in comparison. This remarkable journey is narrated by Cyril Aldred, originally presented during the 1972 Tutankhamun Exhibition at the British Museum.
