Lake Nasser is a huge man-made lake. Egyptians built it to irrigate the land in the surrounding area. The remaining 17 percent goes to Sudan, while 83 percent goes to Egypt (the remaining 13 percent).
Lake Nubia served as a safe haven for those who needed to seek refuge during past Nile floods.
Instructions:
On Lake Nasser, there are three different routes that lead to Abu Simbel. The drive from Aswan to Luxor takes around six hours.
Historically:
After living there for thousands of years, the Nubians were forced to leave their country because of the dams and lakes created by the Nile. The international community and several other parties relocated a significant number of historical sites.
One of them may be seen at Kalabsha in the Mandulis Temple. This healing temple was given its commission by the fertility goddess Marul. The wall sculptures combine a variety of styles (Mandulis in Greek)
Restoring Ptolemaic and Roman architecture was crucial. Both the Ptolemaic Kiosk of Kertassi and the rock-hewn Temple of Beit al Wali may be found nearby.
In the reliefs, Ramses II engages in combat with rebellious Nubians. This monument depicts Ramses II participating in the same battle as his predecessor. Wadi al Sebua, Dakka, and Amanda have temples.
Qasr Ibrim is now connected to a luxury cruise ship through newly constructed roads. Crocodiles, tigerfish, and the Nile perch, the biggest freshwater fish in the world, may all be seen swimming in the lake’s crystal blue waters.
Fishing on Lake Nasser is quite popular due to the fact that it plays home to a number of international sports events.
