The Old Cataract Hotel is one of Egypt’s most famous hotels. Built on the rocks of the first Nile cataract this is the place where the famous writer Agatha Christie wrote “Dead on the Nile”. She used to stay on the balcony over the entrance and drink something while admiring the sunset. On the terrace covered today, she used to write her novel. This was also the hotel where Winston Churchill stayed during his trip to Aswan for inaugurating the Old Dam built by British.

Wonderful page, great tips and pictures. I'd like to stay at the hotel where Agatha Christie wrote “Dead on the Nile”! | LoriPori Mon Sep 11, 2006 13:07 UTC
Feluccas look like a wonderful way to spend a relaxing afternoon and sightsee. Elephantine Island and Agha Khan Mausoleum sound interesting to me. Also thank you for visiting my Delft Holland page. This wonderful town holds a special place in our hearts. | Fam_Stoica Wed May 24, 2006 07:12 UTC
Auzisem despre Gradina Botanica ca e o incantare. Barajul (daca nu ma insel, Saad el Aali in araba) este bineinteles mult mai cunoscut - productia de energie este vitala pentru Egipt si Sudan, insa si efectele colaterale au fost semnificative. Daniel |
