Small dolmen in a well cared for and easily accessible location but very little parking.

Dolmen in perfect condition, easy access area.

It is clean and well-kept in a semi-enclosed space, to put it mildly, but it would be nice to have a green fence on the side of the road so that the houses and the marquee do not appear in the photos.

Beautiful with tables for 7 picnics, ideal to come with children

It is at the foot of the road,... there is no place to park, you leave the car where you can or later... access is free...

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.
