Aswan, Egypt

Aswan Egypt

Aswan is a city located in the southern part of Egypt, approximately 680km south of Cairo, situated just below the Aswan Dam and Lake Nasser, and is home to about 275,000 people. Compared to Cairo and Luxor, Aswan is much more relaxed and smaller in size. Among the three major tourist cities on the Nile, Aswan is the smallest. It is known for its calming and relaxing atmosphere and its laid-back vibe. Aswan boasts some unique attractions. The rock-cut monument Abu Simbel, located to the south, is one of Egypt's most audacious symbols of power. The sanctuary temples of Philae and Kalabsha offer excursions that are reminiscent of Greece. Other notable places to visit in Aswan include: The dual temples of Sobek and Horus at Kom Ombo, and the well-preserved Temple of Horus at Edfu. Aswan is the ideal location to unwind and appreciate the beauty of the Nile.
