Aswan-Nubian Villages

Aswan is in the south of Egypt, and the weather there was hot, hot, hot... When we were there the first day in July, we stayed in the hotel and didn't go outside until the evening because of the unbearable heat. We didn't know the sun was going down there earlier than in Cairo. When we took a felucca to Nubian Villages in Elephantine Island, it was getting dark.

We were not able to spend a lot of time to see the villages, so the felucca owner guided us through the narrow streets to have a quick view of the colorful houses and country-style landscape. We revisited the villages in the next day by taking a ferry to go through the clean and beautiful Nile River.
