From Aswan, we are taking a day trip to Abu Simbel. Ramesses II built two amazing temples at Abu Simbel in the 13th Century BCE. What is even more amazing is that these temples were moved in the 1960's to escape the rising waters of Lake Nasser when the Aswan High Dam was completed. Now the temples look like they have always been there; not a seam to be found.
