Trip idea
Philae Island & the High Dam
Aswan's island temple of Isis, reached by boat, paired with the great dam that reshaped the Nile.
Few temples are approached as beautifully as Philae — a short boat ride across calm water to an island sacred to the goddess Isis, rescued stone by stone from the rising Nile. Combine it with the Aswan High Dam and Lake Nasser to see both the ancient devotion and the modern engineering that define the river's southern reach.
