Edfu Temple

Edfu temple is one of the many nice temples to see while going along the Nile River. If you are going with a guide, it’s almost certain that this is one of the temples that he or she will bring you too. If you’re a student, be sure to show your student ID, just like every other tourist attraction in Egypt.

Perhaps because the location of the Edph is not too convenient (just in the middle of Aswan & Luxor), and not as famous as the other temples, it is obvious that the tourist flow here is relatively small. Because the eagle god Horus is the main, so it is often called Horus Temple, the temple can also see the statue of Horus outside the temple. As the second largest temple after the Kanak Temple, Edfu is actually more intact, after all, the only temple with a roof is the only temple at present, if it is not because of the artificial damage of a certain religion in the past, many exquisite murals, I believe it should be more beautiful here ~

To Egypt must go to Luxor Temple, Luxor this place must come. The Egyptians said: If you have not been to Luxor in Egypt, you have not been to Egypt.

In a country with a ton of temples, this is one of the better ones. Try to hire a certified tour guide to talk about all of the history of the temple.

Valley of the Kings is a must see in Egypt. The burial place of a ton of historical figures including King Tut. Give yourself plenty of time when going though because it takes a long time to see everything.

Luxor Hot Air Balloon

This should be the cheapest hot air balloon experience in the world. We paid about RMB 280, and it is said that the cheaper one is 200. The scenery is not as good as Cappadocia, but it is good for the first experience.

Kom Ombo Temple

Almost certainly one of of the temples you will stop at if you take a guide along the Nile River. This temple is massive, and a lot of the hieroglyphics still are very easy to see. Definitely make sure to have some time when seeing it. Just like every other tourist attraction in Egypt, be sure to show your student ID for half price entrance if you are a student.

Esna temple is one of the few temples that still has a lot of it’s original color in Egypt. Try going if it’s not too far out of your way. other than that, there isn’t too much else to see in the city.
