Out of all that length, the relatively short section between Aswan and Luxor in southern Egypt is the most fascinating. Read on for the main temples to visit on the journey down the Nile between Aswan and Luxor. Philae Temple This gorgeous Greco-Egyptian temple to the goddess Isis is easily reached by boat from Aswan. It was torn apart and moved to its current island location as part of the UNESCO project to save Nubia’s ancient monuments from the rising waters of Lake Nasser. Abu Simbel Although it’s not along the Nile between Aswan and Luxor, this stunning temple is often visited as a long day trip from Aswan by airplane or road. Constructed around 1260 BC, the temple was also rescued from Lake Nasser by the UNESCO project. Edfu Temple One of best-preserved temples from ancient times, the Edfu Temple is where the ancients worshiped the god of the sky. Over the centuries, the temple was nearly covered by sand from the nearby desert and inaccessible due to the annual flooding of the Nile, enabling it to be preserved in such an original state. Temple of Karnak The massive Temple of Karnak is both a masterpiece of ancient Egyptian architecture and one of the largest temples ever constructed anywhere on the planet. It begs two visits: once by daylight to appreciate the engineering and artistic beauty of the Great Hypostyle Hall and again after dark when the ruins come alive during a sound and light show. 1. Which temple will be a better choice if you plan to go at night? A. Abu Simbel. B. Edfu Temple. C. Philae Temple. D. Temple of Karnak. 2. What do Philae Temple and Abu Simbel have in common? A. They are usually reached by boat. B. They are both located on an island. C. They were once under the threat of floods. D.
