Day 7 – November 4, 2024

We began this day exploring one of the best preserved temples in Egypt – The Temple of Horus. This is a classic example of Ptolemaic architecture. It has massive stone walls and towering pylons. It is also one of the few temples in Egypt where inscriptions on its walls describe how it was built. They also show how it was used in ancient times.

To realize the size of the structures and to imagine being built without modern machinery is beyond comprehension.
