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 ergue-se no local da antiga Tebas, com vastos templos na margem leste do Nilo e os túmulos reais do Vale dos Reis do outro lado do rio.

Na margem leste, o complexo do templo de Karnak estende-se por hectares de pilones, obeliscos e a floresta de colunas da sua Grande Sala Hipostila. Uma avenida de esfinges liga-o ao Templo de Luxor, no centro da cidade, especialmente evocador quando iluminado à noite. O Museu de Luxor e o Museu da Mumificação ficam ao longo da marginal do rio.

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