Caption: An Egyptian Ferrari Experience in Edfu A story by Just Go Places
Caption: On a visit to the 3rd biggest temple in Egypt, the Temple of Horus in Edfu, we took a caleche to get to the temple from our Nike cruise dock.
Edfu is a small city of 60,000 people. The ride in the caleche (known locally as the Egyptian Ferrari) was a highlight of the trip as you got a look at city life in all of its chaos and color.
