Along with Khonsu and Amun was the worship of the Theban triad, which, through these connections, became the holiest in the land. It is an area of more than two square kilometers, and it has under it the hypostyle hall, which is the most captivating of all the temples there.
The Luxor Temple At night, the iconic Luxor Temple, which is known as the Southern Sanctuary, was built to commemorate the ruler. This temple was constructed in 1400 BC to honor the Theban triad of Amun, Mut, and Khonsu.
