Who’d thought that you can find a piece of ancient Egypt in the heart of Spain? The temple of Debod is a gift from Egypt to Spain, brought and restored piece by piece in the Parque del Oeste in central Madrid.
The best time to visit the temple is before sunset, because of the magical colours of the sky around the temple.
The temple was rebuilt in Madrid and opened to the public in 1972. The reassembled gateways have been placed in a different order than when originally erected. The temple is one of the few works of ancient Egyptian architecture that can be seen outside Egypt and the only one of its kind in Spain.
