Dendera temple complex is situated on the west bank of the Nile, south of Qena in Upper Egypt, and is home to the stunning Temple of Hathor.
The Temple of Seti I has an unusual L-shaped ground plan and was built primarily of limestone, with the occasional use of sandstone in different areas throughout the structure. The temple was completed after Seti I's death, by his son, Ramesses II, whose cartouches are found in certain parts of the temple, along with his characteristic sunk relief style, that is different from the very fine raised relief of his father.
