In Elephant Island. Some cruise ships will arrange, some will not. It seems that the vast majority of self-driving or chartered people go there specially. It's a good place to worship rams. There is a time when we pack small boats down the river, but when we need to find good companions, we need a large number of people. (Because the money of the charter is fixed, the larger the number of people, the less the number of people to share, the boat can do about 12.)

    Its gate shows its distinctive Nile water flowing from its side through the eagle river, which never stops in the sky day and night, transforming the crocodile into the image of God in the eyes of awe for peace.

    After leaving the Valley of the Kings, we came to the Temple of Esna. Esna Temple is a temple dedicated to Kunum, the God of flood. The Temple of Esna was built in 1500 B.C., and was completely rebuilt during the 18th and Ptolemy dynasties. The temple is very fragmented, the face of the sculpture is damaged in a large area, and the murals on the exterior wall are also exposed to more than 3,000 years of wind and sunshine, losing all the colours. But in the murals of the inner hall, the solemnity and sacredness of that year can still be dimly seen. What remains now is the pillar hall, where the most worthwhile visits are the reliefs and inscriptions on the walls, which record the origin of the world and human life, as well as the activities of the Ptolemy Dynasty. There are also many murals, sculptures, and pictures of him and his wife, sons, and Elefantine. Because the sun had baked me in a state of heat stroke at that time, I did not ask the tour guide every story carefully, only took these pictures. In fact, even the name of the temple was later recognized by photographs.

    The murals in this temple are simply too beautiful and beautiful. You must listen to the guide's stories and recommend them.

    It is a temple dedicated to the God Kunum. As the ancient Nile River flooded and raised the ground, the temple was buried underground, so it was necessary to step down the stairs when visiting. There should also be reliefs, inscriptions and murals on the walls of the temple.
