Temple of Kom Ombo
Worshiping Crocodiles & Horus
We arrive in Kom Ombo and disembark for a night tour of this magnificent double temple dedicated to Sobek the crocodile god, and Horus the falcon-headed god.
Crocodiles were represented by the god called Sobek. Possessing the strength and nature of a crocodile, which Egyptians would both fear and respect, he was a symbol of the Pharaoh’s power. The Crocodile Museum at Kom Ombo displays over 20 mummified crocodiles.
