Journey to discover ancient Egyptian history at Edfu Temple

#100waysoftravel #roadtrip The Temple of Edfu Egypt is also known as the Temple of Horus. It is one of the most beautiful and important architectural works of ancient Egypt. The temple was built during the 2nd and 3rd Pharaonic periods of the Ptolemaic dynasty, dedicated to Horus, the god of falconry and war in ancient Egypt. To get to the Temple of Edfu Egypt, you can follow these steps: Getting to Luxor: The Temple of Edfu is located about 85 km south of Luxor. The popular way to get there is to fly to Luxor International Airport from other major cities and then take a car from the airport to Luxor. From Luxor: You can hire a taxi or private car to get to the Temple of Edfu. This takes about 1.5 - 2 hours. By bus: Another option is to take a public bus from Luxor to Edfu. There are bus services that run between the two cities and the travel time is around 2 - 3 hours. This can be a more economical option than hiring a private car. Nile Cruise: If you are taking a Nile cruise, most cruise lines will stop at Edfu. You can enjoy the beauty of the Nile and visit the Edfu Temple through the cruise tours. Note that before going to the Edfu Temple, it is advisable to check the temple's opening hours and schedule to have a smooth visit.
