A visit to Aswan always includes a tour of the famous Nile Dam. Stopping on the High Dam to appreciate its importance to Egypt; learning its construction history. The views of the Nile and the surrounding desert are eye popping. Desert just up-to the river edge in many places, the Nile feeds all. Tons of security here, armored vehicles, road blocks, metal detectors, soldiers. Actually, we felt the presence of police or army everywhere. Armed Check Points become normal.
