At dawn, at the scheduled time, departure from Aswan to Abu Simbel to see the great temples of Ramses II. Located 290 km south of the city of Aswan, Pharaoh Ramses II built his temple along with another slightly smaller one for his favorite wife, Queen Nefertari. Its facades are presided over by four enormous 20-meter-high statues considered to be the most impressive monuments remaining from Ancient Egypt. In the sixties, and with the formation of the artificial lake of Nasser, the temples were threatened by its waters and thanks to the international aid campaign promoted by UNESCO, they were moved piece by piece to the place where they are now, a few meters from the previous location. Return to Aswan.
