Philae Island
Philae island is located on the Nile. Many valuable monuments from different periods are located here. One of the oldest and perhaps most famous is the Temple of Isis, the patron of nature and magic.
The 30th dynasty of pharaohs was the first one to build a temple here. That temple was dedicated to Hathor. The interiors of the temples and monuments are decorated with Egyptian reliefs and imagies.
