Madrid - Day Five - Egypt

Every town should have its own 2,200 year old Egyptian temple. Templo de Debod, dedicated to the gods of Amum and Isis, was donated to Spain for its help in rescusing the temples of Adu Simbel in Nubia. It was rebuilt in Madrid in 1972 in Parque del Oeste. The park is beautiful and offers some terrific views. The temple is surprisingly large with several rooms and two stories inside. It is also in fantastic condition. If you want to be close to some Egyptian artifacts - and I mean within touch - visit this spot. I cannot resist them.
