À propos

A unique double temple on the Nile bank, one half for Sobek the crocodile god and the other for Haroeris (Horus the Elder), with twin entrances. Look for the famous relief of surgical instruments; the Crocodile Museum with its mummies is next door. About 45 km north of Aswan, best near sunset.
