Dedicated to Mandulis, the Nubian god, it provides insight into regional cultures. Next, a visit to Beit El Wali is arranged. Salved from Lake Nasser, the rescued temple was constructed symmetrically around a central sanctuary with columns.

After learning about its antiquity, you will return to the cruise for dinner and continued accommodations for the night. Meals Included: Breakfast Lunch Dinner

Built by Ramesses II between two cataracts, the elaborate structures were repositioned higher in the 1960s when their original site flooded. After exploring the interiors adorned with towering statues, you have the option to attend the illuminating sound and light show this evening. Conveying visitors through melodies back to pharaonic times, its projections bring the temples' former appearance to life.
