Aswan

The southernmost city of Egypt comfortably settled on a surprisingly picturesque stretch of the Nile , decorated itself with palm islands and a fleet of charming white feluccas (small ships with triangular sails). Coupled with a separate population of Nubians, who have a separate language and special manners, this city is much more African than the entire north of Egypt. And Aswan – the smallest of all the popular cities on the Nile, where cruise ships stop.
