Today, saw the Temple of Horus at Edfu, Egypt. They’re in great condition because they were buried in sand for a long time. They were built starting in 237 BC and finished 180 years later.
The entrance pylon is about 119 feet tall. Horus was the falcon god, the human-like figure with the falcon head.
We rode from the boat to the temple in carriages drawn by not so healthy looking horses.
Visited the temple at Kom Ombo, Egypt this evening. It’s dedicated to the Egyptian god Sobek, the crocodile god. There were lots of tourists. Of course, my presence doesn’t help.
