Temple of Debod
Did you know that there is an Egyptian temple in Madrid? Well, there is one – the Temple of Debod. The temple was donated to Spain by the Egyptian government to save it from floods and was moved, piece by piece, in the early 1970s. They say it is one of the best places to watch the sun set in Madrid but we didn’t wait until the sun set.

A bit of Egypt in Madrid -The Temple of Debod
The Temple of Debod is one of the most interesting places to see in Madrid although, logically, it has nothing to do with Spanish art and culture. In addition, it is one of those visits that can be done for free in Madrid, so that if you are going to visit the capital of Spain you have no excuse not to visit the Temple of Debod.
The Temple of Debod is a small Egyptian temple from the Nubian area. It is supposed to be about 2,200 years old and would have been built during the time of Pharaoh Ptolemy IV. The Debod temple was dedicated to the gods Amón and Isis.
The truth is that visiting the Temple of Debod is well worth it. It is one of the places that can be visited for free in Madrid, the opening hours are long and it is centrally located. Also, rarely do you have the opportunity to visit an entire Egyptian temple outside the country of the pharaohs, so there is no excuse to visit the Temple of Debod. #madrid

Temple of Debod
Went early in the morning for a walk around the park, very beautiful and good stroll. A good place to also have a gorgeous view at a high point.
Entry to the temple and surrounding park is free but be prepared to queue, as the number of visitors per entry is small, due to the small temple capacity.
