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.

About Assuan

Assuan è la serena città meridionale dell'Egitto sul Nilo, dove le feluche scivolano tra isole di granito, villaggi nubiani e rive di palme.

Il Nilo è qui al suo massimo splendore, interrotto da massi di granito e isole verdi. L'isola Elefantina custodisce rovine di templi antichi e colorati villaggi nubiani, l'isola Kitchener è coperta da un giardino botanico, e sulla riva occidentale le Tombe dei Nobili sono scavate nelle scogliere di Qubbet el-Hawa, mentre il mausoleo a cupola dell'Aga Khan sorge su una collina del deserto più a sud.
