Luxor has frequently been characterized as the ''world's greatest open-air museum'', as the ruins of the Egyptian temple complexes at Karnak and Luxor stand within the modern city. Immediately opposite, across the River Nile, lie the monuments, temples, and tombs of the West Bank Theban Necropolis, which includes the Valley of the Kings and the Valley of the Queens. Thousands of tourists from around the world arrive annually to visit Luxor's monuments, making a significant contribution to the modern city's economy. Yusuf Abu al-Haggag is a prominent Muslim historical figure of Luxor.
