Philae
By boat from Aswan
About Philae
The main temple, begun by Ptolemy II Philadelphus, is dedicated to Isis. All the monuments were moved from Philae island to nearby Agilkia in the 1960s, when the Aswan High Dam threatened to flood them.
Opening hours, prices and seasonal openings change, so please check with Philae before you go.
