Located close to the border with Sudan and standing in isolation on the bank of Lake Nasser, this incredible site has a sense of magic that leaves an indelible mark in the memories of all who visit. These monuments, a grandiose testament to Rameses's power, had to be moved so that they weren't submerged by the waters of the lake.
