Abu Simbel (more)

This looks pretty good doesn't it! It's near Abu Simbel, Egypt, and we're looking at Lake Nasser. The lake was created when the High Dam at Aswan was built. A lot of ancient Egyptian artefacts were not removed and are still under the lake...the Abu Simbel temple being one of the exceptions as it was relocated bit by bit.
