Abu Simbel
Add an exciting tour to Abu Simbel, including
the magnificent Temple of Ramesses II and the Temple
of Queen Nefertari. Upon arrival in Aswan fly to Abu
Simbel, tour and then return to Aswan viewing the High
Dam from the air. Half
Day excursion by air $250 per person.
Not only are the two temples at
Abu Simbel among the most magnificent monuments in the
world but their removal and reconstruction was an historic
event in itself. When the temples (280 km from Aswan)
were threatened by submersion in Lake Nasser, due to
the construction of the High Dam, the Egyptian Government
secured the support of UNESCO and launched a world wide
appeal. During the salvage operation which began in
1964 and continued until 1968, the two temples were
dismantled and raised over 60 meters up the sandstone
cliff where they had been built more than 3,000 years
before. Here they were reassembled, in the exact same
relationship to each other and the sun, and covered
with an artificial mountain. Most of the joins in the
stone have now been filled by antiquity experts, but
inside the temples it is still possible to see where
the blocks were cut. You can also go inside the man
made dome and see an exhibition of photographs showing
the different stages of the massive removal project.
