Message from Nicole Carter

The Isis Temple in Aswan, Egypt, is a well-preserved archaeological gem that dates back to the reigns of Ptolemy III and Ptolemy IV. Originally built as a temple, it was later converted into a church dedicated to Saint Mary. The temple boasts impressive walls, a roof with granite panels, and colorful scenes depicting offerings to gods like Satet, Anqet, and Khnum. Visitors can explore the main hall, Holy of Holies, and admire Coptic inscriptions and rare architectural drawings. Don't miss the majestic main gate adorned with winged sun disks and the fascinating historical layers revealed during restoration work.
