The Temple of Hathor has a Great Hypostyle Hall which has 18 columns once painted in brilliant colours. They supported a roof that is divided into 7 sections, each of which is decorated with astronomical scenes. These are similar to those which adorn most Ptolemaic temples, but nowhere are they so well preserved as on the ceiling of the Hypostyle at Dendera. The Second Hypostyle hall has 6 columns with richly ornamented capitals. Three small chambers on each side of the temple were used as stores, treasuries or repositories for offerings. The ante-chamber is decorated with 4 rows of reliefs of offerings to the deities of Dendera. The Boat shrine – is a place where only the pharaoh himself or the high priest was permitted to enter - a holy place where a sacred boat of Hathor lay. And the Crypts - the subterranean chambers where the treasures of the temple were stored or hidden.
