Egypt is one of the many African countries with a civilisation rich in history. In fact, it is one of Africa's most popular destinations. Many people go there for its many monuments and, above all, to visit the temples of the ancient Egyptian civilisation. Here is a selection of Egyptian temples to visit during your trip to Egypt.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Temples to visit in Egypt<\/h2>\n
Visiting Egypt's temples is a real pilgrimage. You'll have to travel from north to south to discover the hidden treasures of these places. The best way to make the journey easier is to take a cruise along the Nile.<\/p>\n
\n
The Medinet Habou temple<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Located near Thebes, an ancient city on the west bank of Luxor, M\u00e9dinet Habou <\/strong>brings together several temples at once. Its size and preservation make it a very impressive temple. You can visit the temple dedicated to the god Amun, which was built on the initiative of Pharaoh Thutmose III and Queen Pharaoh Hatshepsut. This temple complex is surrounded by shops, chapels and residences for the temple's servants and staff.<\/p>\n
\n
The temple of Isis at Philae<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
The Temple of Isis is located in the heart of the Nile, on the island of Philae. This temple is dedicated to the goddess Isis. Its construction began during the 30th dynasty of the Pharaohs. Classified as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, it was moved to the island of Aguilkia in the 1960s to protect it from the rising waters of the Nile.<\/p>\n
\n
The temple of Hatshepsut<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
The Temple of Hatshepsut is the work of the royal architect Senenmut. Situated on the banks of the Nile, this temple was built in honour of Queen Pharaoh and the god Amun. The temple offers a fabulous view of the cliffs from its three 30-metre-high terraces.<\/p>\n
\n
The Memmon colossi<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
The Colossi of Memmon are what remain of the ancient temple. These two stone statues of immense size represent the pharaoh Amenhotep III <\/strong>were intended to guard the entrance to the temple before it disappeared completely.<\/p>\n
\n
The funerary temple of Sety I<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
This temple was built in honour of Pharaoh Seti I. It remained unfinished until his death in 1279 BC, when his son Ramses, once on the throne, completed its construction. It is located in Abydos and majestically dominates the west bank of the Nile.<\/p>\n
\n
The temple of Sobek and Hareris<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
This temple dedicated to the gods Sobek and Hareris is located on a dune overlooking the Nile. This temple, superbly built on the initiative of Ptolemy VI, has two entrances, two colonnades, two sanctuaries and two hypostyle halls. The view is very impressive and it is one of the best-preserved temples in Egypt.<\/p>\n
