We sailed off from Gebel Silsila to Kom Ombo double temple, where we made our glorious stop for a tour in that old town's piles of gold.
Dedicated to two gods in a city that was named after gold in the Greco Roman settlement where it shows in the temple's structure and architecture. It is an outdoor temple that was built in ptolemaic dynasty in Kom Ombo City, an old town of ancient Egypt.
The entrance takes you to double gateways, the right side of the temple is mainly dedicated to god Sobek, the god of crocodiles and his wife, the goddess of Hathor; while the left side to Horus the elder, the god of victory and the good doctor.
The temple was known for its healing powers, thus, was a pretty known pilgrimage site at the time until the temple developed a sanctuary for many patients who were sick and sought treatment and help from the priests.
