Half Day Tour to the Temple of Dendera from Luxor

About this tour

The Dendera Temple is well known for its beautiful reliefs and sculptures depicting various gods and goddesses. The temple was built to commemorate the birth of Horus, the god of kingship, born from Hathor’s womb in Dendera. It has two main parts: a hypostyle hall with four columns and a sanctuary with three chambers.

The famous sculptured Dendera zodiac is widely known as Egyptian bas-relief from the ceiling of the pronaos of a chapel dedicated to Osiris in the Hathor temple at Dendera, containing images of Taurus and Libra. It led Jean-François Champollion to date the relief to the Greco-Roman period which is known as the only complete map that we have of an ancient sky
