- Nubian Village - A visit to a Nubian village is essential when traveling to Egypt. Among all the attractions in Aswan, this experience is likely to capture your heart in every way. The Nubian people are incredibly friendly and welcoming, offering exceptional hospitality in their family homes. They have dark skin and speak a language known as Nuba or Nubian. It is said that they consider their language a sacred tradition and are reluctant to teach it to outsiders. Nubian houses are constructed from mud and are often painted in blue or orange hues. The area is abundant with palm trees and gardens, and they primarily raise chickens and goats on their farms. For those not engaged in farming, locals often earn a living by selling handicrafts and women offering Henna designs to tourists. This trip is a delightful experience for adults, children, and people of all ages.
- Aswan Botanical Garden - The Aswan Botanical Garden is a beloved spot among locals, offering more than just a picturesque setting for a weekend picnic or a leisurely walk. It also serves as a vital center for botanical research, assessing the suitability of various plant species in the Egyptian climate.
Currently, the garden boasts over 25 different varieties of palm trees and attracts numerous native and migratory birds, as well as various types of waterfowl. Depending on the time of your visit, the island can be a fantastic destination for birdwatchers.
