Temple de Mandoulis - Kalabsha

The Kalabsha Temple, which was originally built in Kalabsha (Telmes), was moved to its current location in 1970 AD, along with other monuments in Nubia. Built by Roman Emperor Octavius Augustus (30-14 BC), the sandy edifice can be reached by taxi or by boat, depending on the water level. The temple is dedicated to fertility and the Nubian solar deity known as Mandulis (who was the Nubian counterpart to Horus). It is a really amazing place, do not hesitate and visit it with your family and friends and enjoy learning about the great Egyptian culture.
