Description

Itinerary
This is a typical itinerary for this product

Stop At: Nubian Museum, Assuan, Sheyakhah Oula, Qism Aswan, Aswan Egypt

Your qualified Egyptologist guide will show you some of the most important artifacts before allowing you free time to explore the museum yourself.
in the early 1960's, Egypt built the High Dam at Aswan, Egyptologists & archaeologists the world over heeded UNESCO's appeal to salvage the monuments of Egyptian Nubia before the rising waters of Lake Nasser submerged them forever.
UNESCO was encouraged in the 1980's to plan a Nubian museum in Aswan, where the objects could be stored & exhibited.
it became a reality and opened in November 1997.
The architecture of the Museum and the enclosure walls are intended to evoke traditional Nubian village architecture, as it was along the Nubian Nile before the region was flooded by Lake Nasser.
The building is set within a landscape, on graded levels, that includes a sequence of waterfalls. it divides into 2 branches to surround an open-air stage & amphitheater where already many local & foreign groups have performed.
