  • Unfinished Obelisk, Aswan, Egypt
    The Unfinished Obelisk is an ancient Egyptian obelisk located in the northern region of the stone quarries of Aswan, Egypt. It is the largest known ancient obelisk and was most likely intended for placement in the ancient city of Heliopolis. The obelisk was carved from a single piece of granite, but it was abandoned before it could be completed. It is estimated that it would have stood around 42 meters (138 feet) tall if it had been finished. The Unfinished Obelisk provides insight into the techniques used by ancient Egyptian stonemasons to quarry and shape large stones.

    The Temple of Philae is an ancient Egyptian temple complex located on the island of Philae in Aswan, Egypt. The temple was dedicated to the goddess Isis and was one of the last ancient Egyptian temples to be built. It was constructed during the Ptolemaic period (305–30 BC) and was used until the Roman period (30 BC–395 AD). The temple complex consists of a main temple, two smaller temples, a birth house, and a kiosk. The main temple is surrounded by a large courtyard and features an impressive entrance gate with two towers. Inside the main temple are numerous chambers, including a sanctuary, an offering hall, and several other rooms. The smaller temples are dedicated to Hathor and Horus-Re.

We did a private full day tour from Luxor to Aswan. We visited Edfo temple, the High Dam, and Philae temple. Our guide Hassan was very friendly and knowledgeable, and our driver Hamid was excellent. The inscriptions and sculptures at Philae and Edfo temple were amazing. It represented ancient Egyptian artistic skill at its best. We did have a strict schedule on when we wanted to return back to Luxor and our guide appeased our request. We had lunch at Grand restaurant in Aswan which was very tasty. All in all it was a very enjoyable experience!
