Itinerario

  1. One of Nubia's most important monument sites, the Temples of Philae, 12 kilometers south of Aswan, was an ancient pilgrimage center for the cult of Isis and dazzled travelers with its power for centuries. This sacred site was venerated from the Pharaonic era up to the Greek, Roman, and Byzantine periods with each ruler adding their own stamp onto the stones here. Saved from a watery grave by UNESCO's rescue project, which transferred the monuments block by block from Philae Island to Agilika Island, today, the temples continue to work their charm on all who visit.

La isla Elefantina alberga ruinas de templos antiguos y coloridas aldeas nubias, la isla Kitchener está cubierta por un jardín botánico, y en la orilla oeste las Tumbas de los Nobles están excavadas en los acantilados de Qubbet el-Hawa, mientras que el mausoleo con cúpula del Aga Khan se alza sobre una colina del desierto más al sur.
