After a delectable breakfast in the hotel, our tour guide will take you to see some of Aswan's attractions.
Aswan High Dam, an embankment dam constructed in Aswan, Egypt, that crosses the Nile, has been known as the Aswan Dam since the 1960s.
The Aswan Low Dam, which was built earlier and further upstream in 1902, was much less significant than this one.
Following the 1952 Egyptian Revolution, the government made building the High Dam a top priority due to the Low Dam's success, which was then being utilized to the fullest extent. It was believed that the dam's ability to produce hydropower, store more water for agriculture, and enhance flood control would be crucial to Egypt's planned industrialization.
The High Dam has had a tremendous impact on Egypt's economy and culture, much like its earlier construction. then stop at a local restaurant for lunch.
After that, take an air-conditioned minibus from Aswan to Abu Simbel. The two temples of Abu Simbel are regarded as the best representations of ancient Egypt because of their distinctive structure. They serve as examples of the splendor and majesty of the upcoming Kingdom. The Egyptian government and UNESCO resolved to work together to safeguard these sites from inundation. Ptah, Re-Her-Akhtey, Amun-Re, and Ramesses II all had temples in their honor. The enormous Abu Simbel temple is also known as the Sun Temple of Ramses II.
Ramesses II, Hathor, and the Sun God are symbolically united at the Temple of Queen Nefertari, also referred to as the Temple of Hathor because she was the Sun God's wife. Spend about three hours there before returning to your Aswan lodging for the evening.
