Trip to Luxor, Aswan, Abo Simbel - part 1-
Cuti musim panas aku dan rakan2 mesir + 9 org dari jordan pergi melawat
kawasan tinggalan sejarah mesir purba di Luxor, Aswan dan Abo Simbel.
Kami bertolak dari stesen keretapi Giza menuju ke Aswan pd 31/1/2009.
Just nak kongsi beberapa gambar untuk main events sepanjang trip ini.
Setibanya di Aswan, kami terus menuju ke tempat di mana terletaknya 'Obelisk' yang belum siap. Ia ditinggalkan begitu sahaja selepas terdapat keretakan terhadap struktur batunya.
Dianggarkan bahawa jika Obelisk ini siap, ianya merupakan Obelisk terbesar dan terberat dalam sejarah.
iktibar: nak buat besar2 tapi tak bajet bleh pecah plak sbb batu tu x dpt nk tampung the massive weight. lemahnya manusia.
After that, we went to Philae Temple (elephant temple) situated on an island. Got there by a boat. This temple actually had been excavated from its original site (already sunked under Lake Naser). Many temples laready sunked underneath Lake Naser nowadays. But Egyptian government wanted to preserve this temple and there it is standing on an artificially constructed island. According to the myth, this temple is dedicated to Iris. Cannot remember the full details because it is full of bulshit. Humans acting like God? How pathetic. They cannot do anything to stop Allah's will to sink their temple.
2nd day, We woke up early, at 2.30am. Then we went to Abo Simbel 3hours journey from Aswan by bus. Here we could find the Abo Simbel temple. A big one and another smaller one. This is the picture of the big one. It was built by

Ramses II in order to deify him as God and ruler of Egypt during his time. He ruled Egypt for 67 years. This temple also had been excavated from its original site which is now sunked under Lake Naser. 4 statues at the facaet of the temple represent Ramses II himself, as 4 stages of life, from young to old. It is funny though, how someone who claimed to be God but finaly died because of old age... wakakaka
