Located 4 hours outside of Aswan in southern Egypt near the border of Sudan — in the middle of nowhere is Abu Simbel. When the second Aswan dam was being planned – this site was doomed to be underwater. It was moved – piece by piece to its current location. Thank you UNESCO & others. It is remarkable.
Located adjacent to Lake Nassau which holds enough water for Egypt for 7 years. 😳
The size of Abu Simbel is immense & the thought of moving it – a remarkable accomplishment.
