nubian house at the nubian museum
I visited Aswan twice in 1983 and in 1999.

In november 1997 the Nubia Museum opened its doors. Only this museum maked it worth to visit Aswan again. It's a really must see.

It was also nice to see the known places again. So we made again the lovely boatride to the temple of Phylae and we went for a second time to the unfinished obelisk.

The scenery of the Nile with the many islands and the shopping streets were still amazing.

 A fascinating page! The views on the dam are fine. I liked the unfinished obelisk. I am always interested when you show that Egypt is not only ancient E. On that account, he St Simeon monastery is a good landmark.
