Next stop on the tour is the Temple of Kom Ombo in a city called Kom Ombo. This temple is all about two gods: Sobek, who’s a crocodile god, and Harwer, who’s a falcon god (also known as Horus the Elder). The temple is really unique because it’s made for both gods, with two passages that lead to separate sanctuaries for each one. The right side is for Sobek, and the left side is for Harwer.
