journey to the temple of god horus in edfu and crocodile temple of komombo by car
Overview of your genuine tour:
edfu and komombo the are 2 small towns located to the south of luxor main reason you would visit Edfu is to see the Temple of Horus. This is a Ptolemaic temple, that was built between 237 and 57 BC. It is one of the best-preserved ancient monuments in all of Egypt. It’s dedicated to the god Horus
The temple is said to have been built to represent how a falcon flies. There are two staircases inside, one is a spiral staircase and the other is straight. and considered the most well preserved temple in egypt
bout 48 km south of Edfu is another Greco-Roman temple that’s worth visiting on the journey to or from Aswan. Kom Ombo is in far worse shape, with none of its roofs remaining. But the temple’s open-air atmosphere fits well with its sunny riverside setting.
Kom Ombo is a unique temple, as it’s not just dedicated to one god, but two. The primary gods worshipped here were the crocodile-headed Sobek and Horus. Or more specifically, the particular aspect of Horus known as Haroeris, or Horus the Elder
