Luxor Portal launched
Trade Arabia
I haven't had a chance to check out this resource but it sounds as though it may be useful to Luxor visitors. I had a look at the home page, just to check that the website was actually there, and it is very, very bright! Lots of animated graphics too.
The first official city portal in Egypt (www.luxoregypt.org), is endorsed by the government in Egypt and offers Egyptian, Arab and international visitors to Luxor an array of benefits.
At a click of a button, Luxor lovers will be able to read about the history of this historic Egyptian city, which sits on the banks of the River Nile.
They can also explore the many official directories available which will guide them through sites, monuments, temples and valleys, helping them plan their trip and to experience the marvels of the world’s first and largest open air museum.
