Very beautiful building. You wished you could get closer so you could see more. You got a good walk as the castle is privately owned, so no cars are allowed to enter. Once at the castle, you followed the arrows that showed the loop around the castle

Now there is "traffic forbidden" sign 1 km away from the castle (on the road to the farm) and no parking next to it. Since it is unclear where it is actually allowed to walk we could not visit.

Not possible to drive up to the castle due to prohibition signs. Motor vehicles not allowed

Temple of Edfu

The Temple of Edfu is one of the best preserved ancient shrines in Egypt. It was built in the Ptolemaic Kingdom between 237 and 57 BC.

Edfu was one of several temples built during the Ptolemaic Kingdom, including the Dendera Temple complex, Esna, the Temple of Kom Ombo, and Philae. Its size reflects the relative prosperity of the time. The present temple initially consisted of a pillared hall, two transverse halls, and a barque sanctuary surrounded by chapels. The building was started during the reign of Ptolemy III Euergetes and completed in 57 BC under Ptolemy XII Auletes. It was built on the site of an earlier, smaller temple also dedicated to Horus, although the previous structure was oriented east–west rather than north–south as in the present site.
