It is one of the best-preserved temples in Egypt. The temple was dedicated to the falcon god Horus, the son of Isis and Osiris.<\/p>\n<h3>Why the Pylon is still in good shape?<\/h3>\n<p>The construction of the temple took about 180 years to complete, it is grand, especially at the entrance. The gateway is still in one piece and quite complete as compared to other monuments that I have visited in Egypt for the past few days.\u00a0 The temple is more intact than others as it was once buried in sand in the desert but later discovered by a French archaeologist 1860.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-32722\" src=\"http:\/\/thinkerten.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/IMG_20191225_094610.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>What kind of architecture is Edfu Temple?<\/h3>\n<p>When you proceed inside, you will notice the temple of Edfu consists of traditional elements of Egyptian Temples of the New Kingdom, together with a few Greek elements.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-32719\" src=\"http:\/\/thinkerten.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/IMG_20191225_094433.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>You will see many battle scenes<\/h3>\n<p>The high wall is decorated with many battle scenes.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-32725\" src=\"http:\/\/thinkerten.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/IMG_20191225_095300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>Guess what is the most important statue here?<\/h3>\n<p>Statue of Horus carved in granite stone.<\/p>\n<h3>Who is Horus?<\/h3>\n<p>Horus was a god of the sky, a god form of a falcon whose right eye was the sun or morning star, representing power and whose left eye was the moon or evening star, representing healing. Horus is probably most well-known as the protector of the ruler of Egypt. The Egyptians believed that the Pharoah was the &#8216;living Horus&#8217;. In one of the battles, Horus lost one of his eyes. The eye was restored to him and it became a symbol of protection for the ancient Egyptians.<\/p>\n<p>One of the most important symbols associated with Horus is the &#8220;Eye of Horus&#8221;, a symbol meant to offer the protection of the gods.\u00a0 You will find in many of the souvenirs store selling Eye of Horus, they make it into a pendant or earrings.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-32726\" src=\"http:\/\/thinkerten.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/IMG_20191225_095317.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1365\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>At the Colossal Courtyard<\/h3>\n<p>At the colossal courtyard, there are 32 towering columns and this is where the temple priest made offerings to Edfu&#8217;s gods surrounded by the town people.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-32727\" src=\"http:\/\/thinkerten.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/IMG_20191225_095420.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" \/> <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-32729\" src=\"http:\/\/thinkerten.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/IMG_20191225_095442.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>Check out the Columns<\/h3>\n<p>The columns are decorated with floral and palm capitals, and the golden-hued stone walls are carved in reliefs of the god Horus and Hathor.

Trash is found all over the city. The horse carriage drivers are aggressive and the same goes for the persistent salesmen when you enter the temple. If you are not interested in buying, don&#8217;t even try to look. They yell anything at USD one dollar but when you asked them how much, they will ask you to go into their shop. Please do not go in, just deal with them outside. I refused to enter their shop but asked them how much again the item that I was interested in. Once they knew I was interested, they changed the yelling price from USD 1.00 to USD 10.00. Later they explain to me that, &#8220;See is one dollar, buying is different price.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>I bought a white scarf from another vendor who told me, it was one dollar at first. Price changed when I handed him the money, he took my money and asked me to give him more. So I gave me another one dollar but still, he told me to give him one more.\u00a0 I walked away as my tour group is waiting. He then followed me all the way but at one point, he was stopped by the security guards. Later I was told that salesmen are not allowed to go too far from their shop. In the end, I have given him USD3.00, it was not a big sum of money at all and I don&#8217;t mind paying this amount of money.
