Prepare to encounter the extraordinary Temple of Horus, celebrated as Egypt's most impeccably preserved ancient sanctuary. The Temple of Kom Ombo, a testament to Egypt's rich history, stands in honor of two divine beings: Sobek, the deity with a crocodile's head, symbolizing fertility and the creator of the world, and Haroeris, the ancient god represented as a falcon-headed Horus. What sets Kom Ombo apart is its unique significance tied to the cultivation of substantial sugar cane. This temple complex not only holds architectural and mythological wonder but also offers insight into the agricultural achievements of its time.

About Luxor

Luxor ligt op de plek van het antieke Thebe, met reusachtige tempels op de oostoever en de koningsgraven van de Vallei der Koningen aan de overkant.

Op de oostoever strekt het tempelcomplex van Karnak zich uit over hectares aan pylonen, obelisken en het zuilenwoud van de Grote Hypostyle Zaal. Een laan van sfinxen verbindt het met de Luxortempel in het centrum van de stad, die vooral sfeervol is wanneer hij 's avonds wordt verlicht. Het Luxormuseum en het Mummificatiemuseum liggen langs de boulevard aan de rivier.

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