Blogging from A to Z - day 5 - E

E for an ancient city Edfu!

Today I'm taking you to Edfu - an Egyptian city with the second largest temple (the largest is Karnak). Temple in Edfu is dedicated to Horus, the falcon headed god. It was believed that the temple was built on the site of the great battle between Horus and Seth. Hence, the current temple was but the last in a long series of temples build on this location.

 Is not in English but the photography is great!

So long my friends,
