Get to know Aswan

Aswan has long nourished Egypt’s development, from a primordial source of rock for ancient shrines and statues to its High Dam converting the Nile’s immense power into agricultural and industrial sustenance. Felucca trips along its banks showcase a gallery of Egyptian marvels bathed in golden Nubian hues, including Elephantine and Philae Temple. More treasures await inland, from the Unfinished Obelisk to the Nubian Museum, tributes to Ancient Egyptian engineering prowess.
