The Philae Temple is one of the most beautiful and most important tourist attractions in Aswan, and it has great popularity worldwide. It was rescued from drowning by UNESCO during the construction of the High Dam in the sixties of the last century. The process of saving complex temples lasted for nearly 9 years, in which a large number of countries in the world participated, and advanced technological methods were used.

The temple’s construction dates back to the third century B.C. to worship the god Isis, followed by the Greek, Roman, and Byzantine eras, where each era left its own character on the walls of the temple, where the visitor sees many huge columns, and murals with wonderful drawings. As for access to the temple, it will be through an amazing boat trip in the Nile River in which dozens of pictures of the charming landscapes are taken.
