Kom Ombo is undeniably one of the most intriguing and remarkable of the ancient sites in Egypt. The Temple of Kom Ombo, with its symmetrical double temple dedicated to two gods, is the main attraction of the town—Sobek, the crocodile god of fertility and power, and Horus the Elder, the falcon-headed god of protection. The temple has been built in the Ptolemaic period and is famous for its mirror-like design.
The temple features two entrances, two sanctuaries, and twin halls—one for each god. The beautifully preserved wall reliefs exhibit ancient medical instruments, and mythological scenes, and also show offering rituals that give a vivid depiction of Egypt's past. Among the temple's buildings stands the Crocodile Museum, which showcases the mummified crocodiles and the artifacts found in the vicinity linking the visitors to the ancient times when Sobek was worshiped.
Kom Ombo is not only a historical site but also a place where one can enjoy the breathtaking views of the Nile River especially during sunset, which is why it has become a stopover on the Nile River cruise. It has a great combination of history, art, and nature and is thus a place that portrays the very essence of ancient Egyptian spirituality and architectural brilliance.
