Abu Simbel: The Temples that Travelled

The Temples of Ramses II and Queen Nefertari: These massive rock-cut temples were moved in the 1960s to prevent their submersion during the creation of Lake Nasser. The precision of their relocation to mimic the original solar alignment phenomenon is a marvel. A day trip (3am-11am) from Aswan worth taking.
