Trip to Egypt, April 2005

Edfu 1:
Approaching the Temple of Heru





Coming up to the entrance.



Through the portal across the courtyard into the first hypostyle hall.
See the Heru statues on either side? The really big one is in the courtyard, just outside the hypostyle hall.


The uraues above the portal still has some original color.



The famous statue of Heru towers over people´s heads.
Here you get a good idea of how big it really is.



Closeup.
