Temple of Ra

The Temple of Ra was an ancient Egyptian religious site dedicated to Ra, the sun god. Located in the city of Heliopolis, it served as a major religious center where priests performed ceremonies to honor Ra, believing he was the creator of life and the universe. The temple complex included grand pylons, courtyards, and sanctuaries, symbolizing the sun’s power and the cycle of rebirth. It was a place for worship, offerings, and rituals that reinforced the pharaoh’s divine connection and the importance of the sun in Egyptian cosmology.
