Walk through the gateway of the Sixth Pylon to Stop 7, and you will enter an open space whose centre is occupied by a granite roofed shrine. Walk around the shrine anticlockwise to see the extended texts on the walls of the room by your right-hand side. When you find a dead-end, turn around and walk to the other side, so that you will have made the circumference of the shrine.
8. The Halls of Records
It was in the most sacred part of the temple, hosting the bark shrine of Amun, where Thutmose III chose to make his hall of fame, providing us with the first set of real historical texts from Egypt, known as the Annals.
