Let’s go inside the Great Temple of Abydos erected more than 3000(!) years ago by one of the greatest pharaohs Seti I, known as Seti the Great.

Located in the heart of Egypt (600 km from Alexandria and almost 500 km from Abu Simbel in a straight line) the city of Abydos was always one of the most important places for ancient Egyptians as it not only featured temples and shrines, but also burials of the first Egyptian pharaohs like Narmer or Scorpion.

The temple of Abydos, although displaying an exceptional number of chapels, was mainly dedicated to Osiris - the god of the underworld, “the king of those who are not”. Let’s get to know more about his origins and learn about the spectacular annual festival dedicated to this highly revered deity.

Watching some of the most beautiful reliefs in all of Egypt made by Seti and his son Ramesses the Great, hear an incredible story of a Britishwoman - Dorothy Eady, whose life was intriguing, to say the least.

Let’s venture through the forest of columns, take a look at incredible decorations, including naturally the Abydos King List, as well as at the famous Osireion and feel the atmosphere of mystery and sacredness just like ancient Egyptians thousands of years ago.

Aaaaand did you know the temple of Abydos has a secret chamber?

Let’s go!
