2. The Temple of Hathor at Dendera is one of Egypt’s best-preserved temple complexes, enclosed by a massive mud-brick wall covering nearly 40,000 square meters. The site has a remarkable history spanning over two millennia, with construction and additions beginning in the Middle Kingdom and continuing through the Roman period. The present temple was largely built during the late Ptolemaic era under Ptolemy XII Auletes and later expanded by Roman emperors, including Tiberius. Dendera is renowned for its beautifully preserved astronomical ceiling and accessible rooftop, offering stunning panoramic views of the surrounding countryside. Visitors can also admire the famous Dendera Zodiac, a remarkable bas-relief carving once located on the temple ceiling. Following recent restoration work, the vibrant original colors of the temple ceiling can now be appreciated after centuries of soot were carefully removed. After your visit, you will be transferred back to your hotel in Luxor.

About Luxor

Luxor se alza sobre la antigua Tebas, con enormes templos en la orilla oriental del Nilo y, al otro lado, las tumbas reales del Valle de los Reyes.

En la orilla este, el complejo del templo de Karnak se extiende por hectáreas de pilonos, obeliscos y el bosque de columnas de su Gran Sala Hipóstila. Una avenida de esfinges lo une con el Templo de Luxor, en el centro de la ciudad, especialmente evocador cuando se ilumina por la noche. El Museo de Luxor y el Museo de la Momificación se encuentran a lo largo del paseo junto al río.

Top-ranked sights in Luxor: Valley of the Kings, Temple of Hatshepsut (at Deir el-Bahari), Colossi of Memnon.
