Aswan Area!
Edfu
Edfu (Idfu) is about 105 km from Aswan but it houses the best preserved cult temple in Egypt, known as the The Temple of Horus at Edfu, which is essential viewing for archaeological enthusiasts. The town was known as Tbot by the early Egyptians, by the Greeks as Apollinopolis Magna and by Atbo during Coptic times. It was the capital of the second nome (Horus) of Upper Egypt.
