Edfu Temple Review

Edfu temple is one of the many nice temples to see while going along the Nile River. If you are going with a guide, it’s almost certain that this is one of the temples that he or she will bring you too. If you’re a student, be sure to show your student ID, just like every other tourist attraction in Egypt.

Also known as the Temple of Edford, it is the last existing magnificent temple in Egypt that is completely in accordance with ancient Egyptian tradition. It is a temple of Horus dedicated to the head of the eagle. It is also the only well-preserved ancient temple in Egypt. The temple is also one of the must-visit temples on Egyptian cruise lines. Since the temple is far from the pier, you can take a local special four-wheeled carriage to and from. 

The facade was huge and very hard, and it felt like it was the best-preserved temple in all Egypt, with neat and strong pillars, and Horus was the god of death, and the vandals probably did not want to offend it, disembarked in the morning in the back seat of the carriage.

Horus Temple - located in the north of Aswan, it is also a very famous temple. It is mainly dedicated to the Eagle head of the angel Horus. Horus was a very important god in ancient Egypt, and the Pharaohs often compared themselves to Horus. This temple is the best preserved temple in Egypt.

Eagle head god Horus defeated his enemy Set in this place for revenge.

To go to this temple is to take a carriage, the first time in this single horse-drawn four-seater carriage. The horse-drawn horse is skinny, and the four of us are a little hard, and the driver is still whipping it, a little pitiful. Arrived at the Horus Temple at 2:00 pm. The temperature in Egypt in October was very high. It was estimated to be close to 40 degrees. People were dizzy and even the cameras were not working. This temple impressed me not deeply. The tour was in a hurry. The most clear memory was a photo of the eagle statue at the door.
