I may be wrong, but I think it's just a very convincing recreation?
Edit: the building in the bottom half is the Temple Works in Leeds, built in 1836 in the Egyptian Revival style. It is a recreation of the Temple of Horus (top image) in Edfu, Egypt
Like... I know it's not the original building because how would there be a current photo of both of them. But, still, can't be too sure with the British so had to double check
Lol it's too late and I'm tired and credulous. Should probs log off hey
The british did go full pharaohboo holy shit.
If we can't steal their buildings then we will just steal their architectural style and culture ๐
