Why You Need to Visit Egypt This Year

"The Temple of Horus at Edfu, built between 237 and 57 B.C., is one of the best-preserved ancient structures in Egypt. Dedicated to the falcon god, the vengeful son of Isis and Osiris, the settlement itself was established as a cult center and cemetery site around 3000 B.C. The best way to visit the Greco-Roman temple at Edfu is by horse-drawn carriage."
