( Luxor )

Enjoy a guided Tour to Dendera Temple to explore the best-preserved temple complexes in Egypt. Which contains many structures from different periods of ancient Egyptian history. 

 It is the best-preserved Greco-Roman temple of goddess Hathor with a unique zodiac. 

Head to the north of Luxor to Quena Governorate by bus, accompanied by our Egyptologist guide to Visit Dendera Temple: The temple housed the originally famous Zodiac of Dendera. This bas-relief with human and animal figures represented a night skyscape and was found on the ceiling of a chapel in the Temple of Hathor, where the mysteries of the resurrection of the god Osiris were celebrated. 

A sketch was made of it during the Napoleonic campaign in Egypt. In 1820 it was removed from the temple ceiling by French colonizers and replaced with a fake.  The real one is now in the Louvre

You can see alive scenes that depict the Calendar at the celling of the hypostyle hall, and you can enter the crypt under the ground and explore hidden scenes.
