Temple of Kom Ombo
The Kom Ombo Temple has a story that summarizes that there was a ruler named Ambo and he had an only son, and he was blessing him one day with one of the priests.
One of the priests predicted to his son that he would die in his youth, and the child grew up with his father, and the prophecy still terrifies the ruling father, so he approached all the gods in order to save his son from death.
When the son was swimming in the Nile River, a large crocodile preyed on him and killed him. The father got very angry and set up a large crocodile trap.
Where he dug next to the riverbed a path to which the water flows so that he can pounce on the crocodiles, and he used to take the killed crocodiles and mummify them and hang them on the walls of the temple in the hope that it would relieve his pain and grief over his only son.

Temple of Horus
Edfu Temple is one of the most striking and complete of ancient Egyptian temples and is dedicated to the worship of the god Horus. Situated on the western bank of the Nile, its construction began during the reign of Ptolemy III (246–221 BC) in 237 BC, but was completed in the reign of Ptolemy XII (80–51 BC) in 57 BC, 180 years later.
The temple remained buried under layers of settlement debris for millennia, which is why its architectural and decorative elements have survived so well. In 1860 the French archaeologist Auguste Mariette uncovered and restored parts of the temple.
The temple is fronted by two massive pylons that bear scenes of Ptolemy XII conquering his enemies and worshiping deities. Two large granite statues of the falcon-god Horus stand before the pylons. Once through the pylons you enter into a large Peristyle court lined with columns decorated with floral capitals.
