Aswan High Dam, Unfinished Obelisk and Philae Island
Pick up from your Aswan hotel or Nile Cruise. Spot the scenic Aswan High Dam. The Aswan Dam is one of the tallest earthen dams in the world, built across the Nile in Aswan, Egypt, between 1960 and 1970. Explore the abandoned Unfinished Obelisk. The Unfinished Obelisk is one of the most important archaeological finds in Egypt. It is a granite would-be monument that was never finished. Stroll around Philae Island, an island-based temple complex in the reservoir of the Aswan Low Dam, downstream of the Aswan Dam and Lake Nasser, Egypt.
