Aswan is one of the key cities to Egypt's livelyhood. It is the location of their High Dam, which keeps the mighty Nile from flooding every year, thus allowing the farmers throughout Egypt to have several crop growing seasons per year instead of just one.
Aswan is also the capital of Upper Egypt (Upper Egypt referring to the South of Egypt, because the Nile runs from South to North). |

LKM1018 Mon Mar 24, 2008 11:13 UTC Thanks for the pics and tips Mark! I especially liked the pics from Philae Island. | volopolo Sat Mar 8, 2008 12:00 UTC Lovely page and pictures. volopolo | PA2AKgirl Thu May 3, 2007 20:14 UTC I miss this part of the world. Good page & it's really too bad that other people ruined the chance for you to visit the mausoleum. I think that's the way a few Turkish sites are going to end up--there was obvious disrespect in some places. | uglyscot Wed Apr 5, 2006 07:50 UTC Excellent page of one of the most beautiful places in Egypt. Thanks for the memories. |
