      I am from Aswan. It is one of the cleanest and most beautiful cities in the world. There is no pollution in Egypt compared to other countries. As for the speed of the Internet, Egypt is the 30th in the world and this is an advanced center. As for injustice, I do not know what you are talking about Do you think that Egypt is really like Turkey

    Per Wikipedia - The single entrance is flanked by four colossal, 20 m (66 ft) statues, each representing Ramesses II seated on a throne and wearing the double crown of Upper and Lower. So all figures are Ramesses II.

First stop at the GEM museum in Giza then down to visit friends again . It’s mind blowing to be able to visit these amazing sites and relate them to my many visits to temples in Central America. Great job on all your vlogs !

    Back in my University days, one of my Professors was an Egyptologist and archeologist , who had worked on the Abu Simbel project. He also mentioned that so many temples and other important sites are now under Lake Nasser, as they had so little time to save anything. Abu Simbel was given priority. Awesome site!!

      Many of the sites were Nubian churches dating back to the time when Nubians were Christians. This is documented with photographs in one of the museums in Aswan. My grandpa was one of the engineers who worked on the Abu Simbel project.

      Sudanese culture tho not Egyptian, at Lake Nasser, but of course Egypt gets credit for other Countries culture and heritage, they built a dam over there pushing away the native and indigenous people away

    Visited there in 2021, after Covid. It was completely deserted and we were alone. Its difficult to put into words and has to be experienced. You know you are in the presence of something ancient. Lake Nasser adds to the beauty of the place making it otherworldly and unique. Should be on everyone's bucket list.
