Egypt is full of columns, most of them ancient. I chose these because they're so well preserved and are a bit different, with the stylized lotus flowers at the top.
That's one of the things that amazed me everywhere we went, the beauty and, often, delicacy of the work, and there it still was, thousands of years later, not perfect anymore but still stunning.
Thank you. I was amazed at how much was still in good shape - considering its age - throughout the whole trip. In tombs and on the undersides of lintels you could see amazing detail and often still traces of paint.
Great choice.
