Splendid ancient civilization and long leisurely holiday Egypt-Aswan-articles

The third day (10.21) breakfast is eaten on the train, the requirements are met.

7 a.m. many cafes, we went to Aswan. And then went directly to the Aswan Dam.

Aswan Dam is a great project of construction of the dam project! so that Egypt is to avoid the flood, drought, and also to avoid the fine tuned the Nile's waters.

In the 1980s, the majority of African countries suffering from a rare big drought, Egypt has survived, thanks to the dam. Dams create beautifully, look at photos: this is the last dam water it is for visitors to tour the Avenue, in fact, in the middle of the dam. It does not take photographs of camera, but you can. Dam water.

End of tour, we visited the dam to Egypt after the first temple--ToFile Temple (the Temple of ISIS love), it was not in the now of the island, because the construction of the Aswan Dam, the original small island to the flooded was gone, relocation, it took 5 years full time, put all the stones and large post cut into pieces and halls, number, and then build it again here.

Temples carved with ancient Egypt story of all time (you can read a book), I will not repeat described.

After that we went to the unfinished Obelisk, which is unique to Egypt, unfinished Obelisk found so far is the largest.

Because the Obelisk is made of a block of stone sculpture of carving, because to half that found a crack, unable to continue, so I gave up. After 2 days we are going to see completed Obelisk, here I do not more.

At this time was 3 o'clock in the afternoon, we had found a hungry intestinal anymore, hurried enjoyed a lunch, Egypt fill belly! because tomorrow 5 am to get to Abu usimbe Temple, midnight 11 points get up so early today back to the hotel.

Finally washed hot bath, comfortable bed. The most difficult 2 days have passed, then it is quiet time?

PS: Aswan hotel very good Oh, like a big garden, very nice, the room facilities are very good, but unfortunately we only stayed for 6 hours, and it must be sleeping.

Aswan weather really hot, Temple of the bafile, sunscreen + Hat + umbrella, or feeling exposed skin is burning, really experience a tropical style! guide said let's also well, summer is simply unable to, basic is 40 ° C above, it was in Egypt at the South, even the people are and Cairo there is not the same, very close to the black.
