Egypt's ancient center for the cult of Isis, the Temples of Philae were venerated from the Pharaonic era through the Greek, Roman, and Byzantine periods with each ruler making their own additions to the stones here. This sacred site has dazzled travelers as it one of Nubia's most important monument sites. It was saved from a watery grave by UNESCO's rescue project during the building of the Aswan High Dam; the temples were transferred block by block from their original place on Philae Island to Agilika Island, 12 kilometers south of Aswan. Thanks to this, today travelers can still walk amid the columns of this ancient venerated site

It was dedicated to Amun-Ra and Ra-Harakhty, the Temple of Amada in Egypt was constructed by Tuthmosis III and Amenhotep II, and added to by Tuthmosis IV.

The most magnificent of the monuments Ramses II built, Abu Simbel is both the perfect example of the ambition of this pharaoh's reign and also a model illustration of the achievements of modern engineering and global cooperation. The entire temple complex was transplanted from its original location and lifted piece by piece to its current site by an international UNESCO team working against the clock to preserve it from being flooded by the Aswan High Dam in the 1960s. The colossal stone statues that grace the facade are Pharaoh Ramses II's attempt to achieve immortality.
