Day 4 Aswan - High Dam - Infinished Obelisk - Nile Cruise (B/L/D)
Upon arrival to Aswan in the morning, an once in a life time optional excursion to Abu Simbel Temple is highly recommended. The mighty Sun Temple of Abu Simbel was flanked by four giant stone statues of Rames II and one manifestation of the Sun¡¯s God shown inside the niche directly above the entrance. The alignment of the temple is such that twice a year the sun¡¯s rays reach into the innermost sanctuary to illuminate the seated statues of Ptah, Amun-Re, Ramesses II, and Re- Horakhty. The temple was cut out of the sandstone cliffs above the Nile River and was moved to the present site of higher ground so that it would not be inundated by the waters of Lake Nasser when the High Dam was being constructed in the early 1960.
