Daily Photo - the Nubian Village, Aswan


South of Aswan is the Nubian Village, which is a genuine functioning village (our guide on the wildlife day trip was brought up there), but has set itself up as a type of museum of Nubian life.

The scenerery from the boat on the way there and back is also very fine.
