The restoration process was done by Egyptian restorers from the Supreme Council of Antiquities (SCA) working with restoration department graduates from Luxor and South Valley universities, as well as the Luxor Restoration Institute, according to Mostafa Waziry, secretary-general of the SCA.
They were able to polish the surface of the columns, removing sand and dust that had collected over time and obscured the columns' original engravings and colors.
The restoration process follows worldwide conservation standards and practices. The second phase began immediately following the completion of the first phase, and the hall will be opened soon.
Karnak was the largest and most significant religious complex in ancient Egypt, and its expansion has never stopped for over 1,000 years. It is located in the south of Upper Egypt, on the east bank of the city of Luxor, and houses several temples, obelisks, and shrines erected during the Middle and New Kingdom periods.
