Egyptian Tour - Nile 15 When taxis crossed this river in my mind is familiar and strange, I saw the Nanning Taoyuan Bridge, not the Lijiang River. There are many high-rise buildings on both sides of the river, a little yacht docked on the shore, and a restaurant remodeled by the boat house.

Valley of the Kings is a must see in Egypt. The burial place of a ton of historical figures including King Tut. Give yourself plenty of time when going though because it takes a long time to see everything.

Located in the valley, directly below the cliff, it is very impressive. There is still a short road after entering the gate of the scenic spot. You can take the scenic car and come to the long lift. This is a building that enters the architecture textbook.

[Mennon Colossus] is also called [Mennon Colossus], and the positioning also has "Mannon Colossus" written. They are two rock giants standing on the west bank of the Nile River and on the field between the Valley of the Kings. This statue was originally built by Amonhotep III, during the heyday of the New Kingdom. Two ordinary stone statues, but in the ears of posterity, I heard the legend that these two stone statues can sing. It is said that this one on the right side of the Monong giant will make a boundless sound at sunrise every morning. Many travelers have said that, They heard a sad song here, and the ancient Greeks linked this phenomenon to the story of the capture of Troy. But scientists believe that this is actually a very common natural phenomenon, the sound is due to the sudden change of temperature from cold to hot at sunrise, and the heat generated by the first solar rays in the early morning, passing through the body of the stone, making it emit the sound of gold stones, This creates a phenomenon where stone statues sing. The name of the statue of Monon, derived from the ancient Greek mythology, Monon is a king in Greek mythology, he won the Trojan War, but was killed by the queen sympathizer, according to historical records, during the Roman reign, there was an earthquake, so that the statue appeared cracks, whenever the wind rose, The giant statue will make a sound like a man crying, like singing a sad song. Because the temple behind the statue has been completely destroyed, people can not understand the true meaning of the statue, the Greek myth of the pathetic Mennon named the statue, but unfortunately, in 200 AD a good Roman emperor ordered repair, the already dilapidated stone statue, from now on, The crying statue of Meng Nong will never cry again.

Edfu temple is one of the many nice temples to see while going along the Nile River. If you are going with a guide, it’s almost certain that this is one of the temples that he or she will bring you too. If you’re a student, be sure to show your student ID, just like every other tourist attraction in Egypt.

I was lucky to be a student in Egypt back then from 2011-2018. As we all know , Egypt is a country blessed with manu outstanding diving spots along Red sea and Mediterranean coastline. I had chances to dive in Hurghada, Dahab and Sharm el Sheikh. The satisfaction feeling was indescribable. Red sea is very amazing with clear blue greenish water that are home to the most vibrant coral reefs and marine creatures. Arghh how i missed my old good young and happy days in Egypt.

The temple of Phylea is located in Aswan, Egypt, which was built on the island of Phylea in the south Nile river in Aswan City, and is dedicated to the goddess of love, Isis. The temples seen today are not at the original site. After the Aswan Dam was built to store water, the temples were almost completely submerged. Since 1972, the Egyptian government has built a fence around the temple, draining the river from the river, and then demolishing the temple into more than 45,000 stones and more than 100 stone pillars. Moved to Aegika Island 500 meters north of Philae Island as it is, and then opened to the world.
