Construction began around 690 BC, and it was one of the last outposts where the goddess was worshipped.

    The high Dam: Aswan High Dam is a rock-fill dam located at the northern border between Egypt and Sudan. The dam is fed by the River Nile and the reservoir forms Lake Nasser. Construction for the project began in 1960 and was completed in 1968. It was officially inaugurated in 1971.

    The unfinished obelisk: Aswan was the source of ancient Egypt’s finest granite used to make statues and embellish temples, pyramids, and obelisks.
    The large unfinished obelisk in the Northern Quarries has provided valuable insight into how these monuments were created, although the full construction process is still not entirely clear. Three sides of the shaft, nearly 42m long, were completed except for the inscriptions. At 1168 tonnes, the completed obelisk would have been the single heaviest piece of stone the Egyptians ever fashioned.

    L'excursion était merveilleuse, chaque étape du voyage était bien planifiée. La beauté du temple d'Isis et des temples d'Abu Simbel était indescriptible. Seul bémol, la chaleur était un peu intense, mais cela valait bien l'effort.

    Il tour di due giorni da Sahel Hashesh verso Assuan e Abu Simbel è stato eccezionale. I punti salienti erano davvero unici, specialmente il Tempio della Dea Iside e, naturalmente, i templi di Abu Simbel. La guida era esperta e amichevole. Consigliatissimo!

    This two-day tour from Sahel Hashesh to Aswan and Abu Simbel was simply fantastic! Visiting the High Dam and then sailing to Phiala Island to see the stunning Temple of Goddess Isis was an unforgettable experience. Abu Simbel was a highlight for me, and our guide was very knowledgeable. Highly recommend!
