Visited a number of them along the Way. These are from Edfu & Kom Ombo.
Inner courtyard at Edfu Temple
Carvings on both sides of entrance to inner temple at Edfu
The temple at Edfu was dedicated to Horus, the major God. I think he looks like the original Angry Bird
Edfu Temple
Still amazing carvings on the columns at Edfu Temple
The inner most chamber of the Temple at Edfu, rocking that Raiders of the Lost Ark vibe. Only the highest priests allowed in here.
On to Kom Ombo which was dedicated in many ways to the crocodile gods. In fact, there's a separate crocodile museum (sadly, no pix allowed) where hundreds of mummified crocodiles are stored. And they did a better job on them than the Pharaohs.
