    Dendera Temple Complex

    Our driver picks you up from your accommodation in Luxor and drive in about 1 hour to Qena where Dendera temples is located. Enjoy a 2 hour visit to Dendera, the entire Dendera complex covers about 40,000 square meters and is surrounded by a large, enclosed wall of mud. The main building in the complex is the Temple of Hathor. The existing structure began construction in the late Ptolemaic period at the time of Ptolemy Auletes in July 54 BCE and the colonnaded hall was built in Roman times under Tiberius. Depictions of Cleopatra VI appearing on temple walls are prime examples of Ptolemaic Egyptian art. And there are vivid scenes in which the Roman Emperor Trajan pays tribute to the ancient Egyptian goddess Hathor. From Qena it's about a 1 hour drive back to Luxor
