A large pharaonic city, built more than 3,400 years ago during the
opulent reign of Amenhotep III, has been uncovered in Egypt.
Experts have described the site as "ancient Egypt's Pompeii" due to how
well it has been preserved - despite lying unseen for centuries.
Archaeologists began searching for a mortuary temple near Luxor in
September, but then found mud brick formations in every direction.

They unearthed the city which still had almost complete walls and rooms
filled with tools, jewellery, scarabs, coloured pottery and bricks
bearing seals of Amenhotep's cartouche.
It has been described as the "lost golden city of Luxor".
Team leader Zahi Hawass said: "The city's streets are flanked by
houses... some of their walls are up to three metres high."
