Tag 01 Tour to Dendera Temple

Happy Egypt guide will meet you at the reception of your hotel to start your journey to Dendera. Today, you will explore one of the finest and most beautiful temples among the Egyptian temples, the temple of the goddess Hathor at Dendera.

 

Dendera or Tentyra was the capital of the 16th Nome of Upper Egypt.

The temple is dedicated to the goddess Hathor.  Hathor (The Cow) was identified by the Greeks as Hera or Aphrodite. She was the goddess of love, dance, and music. Before you reach the temple, there are two structures in the precinct of the temple, the Mamisi or “the birth house” and the Roman Basilica.

The temple of Hathor was built in the time of the Greeks. It is in very good condition with amazing astronomical scenes on the ceiling. 24 Hathoric columns bear the roof of the 1st hypostyle hall.

 

Let’s explore this magnificent temple during the Luxor day tour with its very beautiful scenes on its ceiling, such as the representation of the goddess Nut. One of the very well-known things about this temple is the representation of the Egyptian zodiac on the top of the temple. You will admire the good carvings in the crypt at the rear part of the temple behind the sanctuary. Queen Cleopatra VII appears on the back exterior wall, making an offering to the goddess. A small temple is dedicated to Isis is in the back of Hathor’s temple. A pool with a Nileometer is to the right of the temple.

We took a ride in the village of Slavia, but I couldn't find an option to review this activity
Because it is temporary so I found this company on the Internet, customer service staff is good, but the only US is not enough is that he can only brush cards online can not pay cash, hope to have the option of paying cash

We had a great afternoon
Leading our guide Ahmed people are good, we because of the previous trip delayed time, let him wait for us a while on the boat, up to the boat to discover the entire boat only us, he also gave us water and drinks, we saw the sunset on the boat to take pictures very carefully, the road Ahmed like we told the surrounding view, some understand some not understand, but this is the charm of travel
Finally arrived at the place where Ahmed was very good to support us in the upper edge, the youth who carried the rope was also reassured to give us, but there was no stubborn edge in the back of the supervision, on the road we would run for a while and walk very self-sufficient, in his body we were afraid and excited, and finally walked into the village of slavery, we went to eat slavery bread with black sugar and adult food, that servant and our soy milk taste super like soy milk, also drank black tea, because Arab coffee is interested so we also tried, the taste is very special. Finally we went to the school in Slavia for a class, really a classroom, we quickly learned some Arabic and Slavic, really too hard, but very happy, if not to rush back and gather, really want to slow down the whole village
