点评:We were uncertain whether to include this temple on our journey from Aswan to Luxor but we are so glad we did. Located in the centre of Esna, the temple lies well below ground level and for many years it remained buried under rubble. Work continues on the site and only a relatively small part of the complex, the Roman Era Hypostyle Hall is available to visit. Access is down a long flight of stairs (although there is an elevator available).
As you approach the building, the first thing you see are six tall columns which lead into a beautiful Hypostyle Hall. It is not that large, but the quality of the carvings and paintings is exceptional, in particular the ceilings which have been recently restored with their original colour pallet and are among the best we have seen anywhere.
Not a large place compared to other temples in the area, but well worth a visit.
翻译:我们原本犹豫是否要将这座神庙纳入从阿斯旺到卢克索的行程,但现在我们无比庆幸最终决定前往。这座神庙位于埃斯纳中心,地势远低于地面,多年来一直被瓦砾掩埋。遗址仍在修复中,目前仅开放了建筑群中相对较小的一部分——罗马时代的柱厅。进入柱厅需要沿着长长的楼梯向下走(不过也有电梯)。
走近神庙,首先映入眼帘的是六根高耸的柱子,它们通向一个美丽的柱厅。柱厅虽然不大,但其雕刻和绘画的精美程度令人叹为观止,尤其是最近修复的、恢复了原貌的天花板,堪称我们见过的最精美的天花板之一。
与其他地区的神庙相比,这座神庙规模不大,但绝对值得一游。
