Welcome to Aswan, Egypt

On the Nile River Cruise from Luxor we traveling south as far as we could till we came to the Aswan Low Dam, built in the early 1900’s.

We stayed overnight in Aswan and did a number of excursions.    A very interesting city with a blend of the old and the new.

Because of the extended time we spent here I have added some individual pages for you to drill down and view our time spent at each one.
