The Luxor Las Vegas brings visitors face to face with a full-scale replica of King Tutankhamun's Tomb, one of the greatest archeological finds of all time. The measurements of each of the rooms are exactly the same as the original. Every detail was laboriously recreated as workers used the same gold leaf and linens, precious pigments, tools, and original 3,300-year-old methods to recreate the treasures found in the tomb.
A four-minute film is shown prior to the 15-minute audio and self-guided tour. The exhibit houses hundreds of reproductions, including the world-famous guardian statues, King Tut's sarcophagus, and an array of statues, vases, beds, baskets, and pottery. Howard Carter and Lord Carnarvon discovered King Tut's Tomb in the Valley of Kings at Luxor in 1922, and all items have been faithfully arranged according to their journals. Although it is not quite the original, it's worth the $5 admission if you're a fan of ancient Egypt.
