OTT-DVD-105 - A cruise on the Nile in the wake of the ancient Egyptians, an adventure into the world of the Pharaohs and the exploration of their mammoth culture. A three-kilometre avenue of sphinxes leads from Luxor to Karnak. Built during the reigns of Ramses the 2nd and Amenophis the 3rd, this impressive avenue was dedicated to three gods of Thebes. The façade of the 260 metre long temple is decorated with six huge statues of Ramses. At night, the temple complex has an air of mystique. and light casts ghostly shadows all around as fearsome monuments gaze into infinity. At its zenith, a million people inhabited Thebes. The necropolis covers 25 km² and the graves of 64 kings, queens and those in High Office have been discovered there. With the exception of Amenophis, each of the pharaohs of the new realm was buried in the necropolis, as well as the legendary, Tutanchamun. Edfu with its tower, outer walls, buildings and halls is still in almost perfect condition and at its entrance royal falcons carved from granite stand guard. Its walls are an authentic history book of Egyptian myth and legend. The Egyptian gods are everywhere as impressive statues, fragile carvings and paintings. Kom Ombo is a temple complex for two deities, Horus the Falcon and Sobek the Crocodile. The mummified holy crocodiles are stored in a special chamber. Indeed, cemeteries have been discovered that contain thousands of mummified dogs, cats, baboons and crocodiles. While walking from chamber to chamber it's like travelling back in time for thousands of years. The journey on the Nile leads to the archaeological excavation site of Philae, on the island of Agilika. This island, with its fantastic temple complexes, was once the pearl of Egypt. The stone witnesses on the river banks stand silently as the boat continues on its journey further into Egypt, an impressive country that has an amazing ancient history and a modern awareness of its glorious past.

GTR-DVD-1127 - Today, the Egyptian city of Kom Ombo has approximately 70,000 inhabitants. Its outstanding double temple has made it famous throughout the world. Today, the mummified remains of ancient Nile crocodiles are displayed within a chapel that was once dedicated to the goddess, Hathor. These great reptiles were worshipped as sacred animals. One half of the double temple belonged to the crocodile-headed deity, Sobek, the son of Hathor. Today's Kom Ombo Temple was divided into two asymmetric parts by its Ptolemaic builders. Within the right section of the building, Sobek was worshipped, while the left half was dedicated to Haroeris. The external surrounding wall of the temple contains several strange pictures and reliefs including portrayals of early medical instruments. A kind of medicine cupboard was carved into the stone. It shows highly developed medical implements, among them a variety of surgical instruments and even forceps. The profession of doctor was popular and widespread throughout ancient Egypt. However, the Gods were also called upon as soon as there was illness as it was believed that medicine alone could not provide a cure. Images of numerous Egyptian rulers adorn the walls. Queen Cleopatra, the legendary last Ptolemaic sovereign, was also immortalized here. Outside the temple there is a "Birth House" next to the small Hathor Chapel. The Mammisi contains the remarkable portrayal of a nursing mother. During the Ptolemaic period each temple contained a Mammisi that was decorated with portrayals and hieroglyphs. Here, the birth of the children of the gods was celebrated. Due to the ancient relics and the double temple of Kom Ombo we have been able to gain an even greater understanding of Egypt's fascinating past.

EXT-DVD-19 - PALACE ON WHEELS - Five Star Train Journey In Wonderland - The North Indian metropolis of Delhi is the starting point of a fascinating journey through Rajasthan on board one of the most exciting and remarkable trains in the world, the train of the maharajas, the legendary Palace On Wheels. The first stop is Jaipur where the passengers are given a right royal reception that makes the illusion that each passenger is a member of a maharaja's family even more believable and also highlights the regal atmosphere of the journey. The famous Hawa Mahal, The Palace Of The Winds, is one of the most impressive examples of the extravagant lifestyle of the Rajputs and is one of the most photographed buildings in India. With around seven hundred thousand inhabitants Jodhpur is the second largest city in Rajasthan and is often referred to as the City Of Light. The historic centre of the city is dominated by a huge structure, the Meherangarh Fort. Udaipur is one of the most beautiful and romantic cities in India and its history began with the conquest of Chittorgarh by Mughal Akhbar in 1568. The City Palace has frequently been extended since the end of the 16th century and it is now the largest palace in Rajasthan. To the west of Udaipur is the eighty hectare open-air Shilpgram Museum that provides a fascinating insight into India's traditional architecture and daily life. At first glance Agra is like any other major city in Northern India, full of exotic atmosphere and energy. But it is the home of the Taj Mahal, one of the most famous buildings in the world and a unique mausoleum that is the highlight of any journey to India. As a monument of infinite love Shah Jahan had this building created for his beloved wife, Mumtaz Mahal.
