Philae Temple Guide | Encounter the Goddess of Love, Isis
Encounter the Goddess of Love, Isis.📝 The Philae Temple is located on Philae Island in the Nile River, south of Aswan city, dedicated to the goddess Isis.
📝 The murals in Philae Temple are exquisitely crafted, depicting well-known stories from Egyptian mythology, and it is also the place where the ancient Egyptian religion has been preserved the longest.
📝 Since the 1960s, the construction of the Aswan Dam caused parts of the Philae Temple to be submerged. Like the Abu Simbel temples, with the assistance of UNESCO, the temple was relocated to Agilkia Island, more than 500 meters from the original site, and thus preserved.
🎫 Tickets
📍450 Egyptian pounds, next to the ticket office you can give cash to locals to help you buy tickets with a card, refer to images 10-11 for entrance and ticket information.
🚗 Transportation
📍It's about 7 kilometers from Aswan downtown to the Philae Temple pier, roughly a 20-minute taxi ride, costing around 100 Egyptian pounds one way.
📍In Aswan and Luxor, it is recommended to use inDrive and Careem for taxis, as Uber is not very reliable in these areas.
📍Philae Temple is on an island, and cannot be directly reached by car. You need to take a taxi to Marina Philae Temple first, and after buying a ticket at the pier, you can enter the scenic area.
📍However, the funny thing is that the tickets bought at the pier are for the scenic area and do not include the boat ticket to the island.
📍To take a boat to the island, you need to bargain with the Egyptians. At that time, I found two Koreans to share a boat, costing about 200 Egyptian pounds per person for a round trip. However, the pier and the boat are both quite beautiful, and it's very suitable for taking portraits on the boat, you can refer to image 12.
📍It is important to note that if you are sharing a boat with others, you need to agree on a return time, usually 2 hours are given to stay on the island. But Philae Temple is really beautiful, especially during sunset. If you want to stay longer on the island, it's best to charter a boat.
The temple of Phylea is located in Aswan, Egypt, which was built on the island of Phylea in the south Nile river in Aswan City, and is dedicated to the goddess of love, Isis. The temples seen today are not at the original site. After the Aswan Dam was built to store water, the temples were almost completely submerged. Since 1972, the Egyptian government has built a fence around the temple, draining the river from the river, and then demolishing the temple into more than 45,000 stones and more than 100 stone pillars. Moved to Aegika Island 500 meters north of Philae Island as it is, and then opened to the world.
The Temple of Philae is located on Philae Island, and individual buildings have also moved over because of the Aswan Dam built upstream. The island and departure must be reached by boat through the pier, and the building is beautiful.
