Højdepunkter

The Mountain That Moved for a King Ramses II's monumental masterpiece, carved into a cliff face, stands as an eternal testament to pharaonic power—with four 65-foot-tall colossi of the king guarding its entrance for 3,200 years. Witness the precision of ancient astronomers: twice yearly, the rising sun pierces the inner sanctum to illuminate statues of Ramses and the gods—a phenomenon that still occurs today. This engineering marvel was saved from Nile waters in the 1960s, when the entire temple was cut into blocks and relocated 200 feet higher—one of history's greatest rescue missions. Inside, vibrant battle scenes show Ramses' victory at Kadesh, while hidden chambers whisper of royal rituals performed for the sun god Amun. Arrive at dawn when the first light sets the colossi ablaze in gold, just as intended by its builders in 1264 BC—and you'll understand why this isn't just a temple, but a statement in stone.

About Aswan

Aswan er Egyptens rolige sydlige by ved Nilen, hvor feluccaer glider mellem granitøer, nubiske landsbyer og palmekantede flodbredder.

Nilen er smukkest her, brudt af granitblokke og grønne øer. Elefantøen rummer ruiner af gamle templer og farverige nubiske landsbyer, Kitcheners Ø er dækket af en botanisk have, og på vestbredden er adelsmændenes grave hugget ind i klipperne ved Qubbet el-Hawa, mens Aga Khans kuppelformede mausoleum står på en ørkenbakke længere mod syd.

Top-ranked sights in Aswan: Abu Simbel Temples, Philae Temple (Temple of Isis), Aswan High Dam.
