Sound and Light show at the Pyramids. The show is popular, with a soundtrack providing a dramatization of ancient events while the pyramids are lit with colored lights and laser pictures, and the rock face in front of the audience shows slides and animations.

Avenue of the Sphinxes at the Temple of Karnak in Luxor. At one time it is believed that the entire road from Karnak to the Luxor Temple, about 4 miles, was lined with these Sphinxes. Our guide told us that the local government is talking about trying to excavate the rest of the avenue, but it's difficult since so much is built on top of it.
