The first Aswan Dam was built between 1898 and 1902 at the request of the British Governor. The aim was to regulate the flooding of the Nile in order to make better use of agricultural land. Similarly, the end of the flood allowed the development of Cairo, without fear of flooding. This first dam was raised twice. It was after its elevation that the island of Philae was submerged. Under the aegis of UNESCO, the temple of Philae was moved to the island of Agikia between 1972 and 1980.

Nous avons étais voir cet immense barrage qui est vraiment impressionnant mais nous avons trouver bizarre de devoir payer une entrée pour voir ça.
Ce n'étais pas bien cher, l'équivalent de 4 ou 5 euros mais quand même.
Vous pouvez voir à perte de vue, à voir quand même!
