What makes Private Full Day Tour to Aswan from Luxor a unique experience ?
The Temple of Horus is an ancient Egyptian temple located in Edfu, a city on the west bank of the Nile River in Upper Egypt. The temple is dedicated to Horus, the falcon-headed god of the sky, and was built during the Ptolemaic period, between 237 and 57 BC, although it was constructed on the site of an older temple dating back to the New Kingdom period.
The Temple of Horus is considered one of the best-preserved ancient Egyptian temples, and is renowned for its impressive size, intricate carvings, and detailed reliefs. The temple is laid out in a traditional Egyptian design, with a series of courtyards, halls, and chambers leading to the inner sanctum, where the statue of Horus was kept.
The Temple of Philae is an ancient Egyptian temple complex located on an island in the Nile River near the city of Aswan, in southern Egypt. The temple was built over several centuries, starting in the Ptolemaic period and continuing into the Roman era, between the 4th century BC and the 3rd century AD.
The Temple of Philae was dedicated to the goddess Isis, and was considered one of the most important religious sites in ancient Egypt. The temple complex includes several buildings, courtyards, and halls, all adorned with intricate carvings and reliefs depicting the life and mythology of Isis and other deities.
The Aswan High Dam is a large hydroelectric dam located on the Nile River in Aswan, southern Egypt. It was constructed between 1960 and 1970, with the aim of controlling the annual floods of the Nile, generating hydroelectric power, and providing irrigation water for agriculture.
The Aswan High Dam is an impressive feat of engineering, with a length of 3,830 meters and a height of 111 meters. The dam reservoir, Lake Nasser, is one of the largest man-made lakes in the world, covering an area of over 5,200 square kilometers.
The dam has had a significant impact on the economy and society of Egypt. It has allowed for the expansion of agriculture in the Nile River valley, as well as the development of hydroelectric power, which has helped to fuel the country’s economic growth. The dam has also helped to mitigate the damage caused by the annual floods of the Nile, which had previously caused widespread destruction in the region.
The Unfinished Obelisk is an ancient Egyptian monument located in the northern region of the stone quarries of Aswan, in southern Egypt. It is believed that the obelisk was commissioned by Queen Hatshepsut, one of the few female pharaohs in ancient Egypt, during the 18th Dynasty, around 1450 BC.
The Unfinished Obelisk is notable for its sheer size, with an estimated weight of 1,168 tons and a length of around 42 meters. It is also notable for the fact that it was never completed, as cracks appeared in the rock during its carving, rendering it unusable.
