Overview of your Aswan tour:

Twice a year beams of sunlight would penetrate the front entrance and 65 metres into the temple. This would illuminate three of the four statues in the shrine at the end; the fourth, Ptah - the God of darkness - would not be lit. A phenomenon the entire world stood in awe before it to prove how the ancient Egyptians were very advanced in astronomy and architecture. In the 1960s the construction of the High Dam on the Nile threatened to submerge Abū Simbel. In a remarkable feat of engineering that began in 1964, both temples were meticulously disassembled and rebuilt at a higher location. I invite you to witness a new miracle of the reconstruction of these two magnificent temples by the new technology besides the miracle of their construction by the ancient Egyptians. If you spare a day in Aswan, I recommend you to come with me to see this breathtaking monument which has no equal in this universe.
