Visiting Edfu and Luxor Temple, Luxor, Egypt
Located in between the cities of Aswan and Luxor and dedicated to God Horus, the impressive Edfu Temple is a must in any trip to Egypt.
After arriving back in Luxor for the second time, I walked in the heat to also explore Luxor Temple on the East Bank of the Nile. A magnificent example of Egyptian architecture that changes completely when visiting by day and by night. That's why I decided to visit both times!
During my 6th day in Egypt, we stopped by Edfu Temple on the way from Aswan back to Luxor, followed by a day and night visit of the impressive Luxor Temple. These visits were part of my Essential Egypt tour with Travel Talk Tours, which lasted for a total of 9 days and covered the main highlights of Egypt from north to south. You can find the entire itinerary in my post Essential Egypt in 9 days: itinerary, arrival and first impressions of Cairo.
Edfu Temple is located 112km north of Aswan and 110km south or Luxor. A visit to the temple costs 100 Egyptian pounds (approx. 鈧�5.70). The temple is the perfect stop on the long way between Aswan and Luxor. ...... (follow the instructions below for accessing the rest of this article).
