    A visit to the double temple is the most beautiful in the early evening hours. Illuminated by numerous headlamps, the temple is bathed in a special light.

      The only temple in Egypt where two gods were worshiped. The two brothers Horus (falcon head) and Sobeck (crocodile head)
      According to legend, the temple was divided into two halves by the goddess Maat (Justice) so that there is no conflict

        There is also the double sanctuary of Serabit el-Chadim on the Sinai Peninsula, with two separate and also curved cult axes for Hathor and Sopdu. The double temple of Kom Ombo is of a much later date, dating to the Ptolemaic period. Which "half" of the temple was dedicated to which deity is clearly evident from the inscription above the main portal—easily legible even without knowledge of hieroglyphs.
