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. 12:00 lunch onboard of the Cruise

    Круиз по Нилу был великолепен. Команда на Grand Princess создала замечательную атмосферу. Храм Ком-Омбо и Эдфу оставили незабываемые впечатления. Обязательно рекомендую для путешествующих по Египту.

    Die Nilkreuzfahrt auf der Grand Princess war ein unvergessliches Erlebnis. Von Assuan nach Luxor zu reisen und die ägyptischen Highlights zu besuchen, war erstaunlich. Besonders beeindruckend waren der Hohe Damm und der Tempel von Philae.
