About Aswan

Assuão, serena cidade do sul do Egito junto ao Nilo, onde as faluas deslizam entre ilhas de granito, aldeias núbias e margens ladeadas de palmeiras.

O Nilo está aqui no seu momento mais belo, interrompido por blocos de granito e ilhas verdes. A Ilha Elefantina alberga ruínas de templos antigos e coloridas aldeias núbias, a Ilha Kitchener é coberta por um jardim botânico, e na margem oeste os Túmulos dos Nobres estão escavados nas falésias de Qubbet el-Hawa, enquanto o mausoléu de cúpula do Aga Khan se ergue numa colina do deserto mais a sul.
