In addition to the pyramids, there are many ancient temples in Egypt that are also amazing. Like this ancient Egypt's most complete temple-the Eagle God Horus Temple is also the second largest temple in ancient Egypt! Horus with eagle head and human body.

Entering the temple, the outside is high and the inside is low flared, the outside is not visible but the inside can be seen outside, the stairs spiral up and down straight, the color pictures remaining on the ceiling...each design has its meaning.
