The Temple of Edfu, located in Upper Egypt on the west bank of the Nile, is a well-preserved ancient Egyptian temple dedicated to Horus and Hathor. Built between 237 and 57 BC during the Ptolemaic Kingdom, this temple is famous for its detailed inscriptions depicting myths and religious practices of the time. The creation myth of the temple tells the story of the world's beginning and the sacred marriage between Horus and Hathor. With its impressive architecture and historical significance, the Temple of Edfu remains a popular tourist destination in Egypt, attracting visitors from around the world.
