Kalabsha Temple

Aswan, Egypt

Description:

The temple of Kalabsha surprises tourists with its giant size and unusualness. This attraction hangs over Lake Nasser on the west side of the dam. The peculiarity of the temple is the cemetery between it and the lake.

Previously, the temple stood on the territory of Talmis (Kalabsha). Germany sponsored the move to Nubia. Thus, the landmark was named after the original location.

You can get to the temple of Kalabsha by taxi, by train (Saad al-Ali station) or by motor boat. The average cost of the journey will be around £25.

The road, the outer and inner temple, the courtyard still attract travelers.
