The reason why a fake is put here is because he is the key to solving the mystery of Egypt's history. French archaeologist Shang Boliang deciphered the hieroglyphs of ancient Egypt through three words on the stone. n∈ Rosetta Stone, the key to solving the mystery of ancient Egyptian civilization, with three words on it.

After reading it all, Yun Luo thought that the most impressive thing among them was Tutankhamun's gold burial objects. Tutankhamun might not have done anything, but his biggest act was to bury it well. Because his cemetery was under the cemetery of another pharaoh in the Valley of Kings, he was spared from being robbed. The finest of his burial objects was probably his gold mask. When you look closer and carefully, you will definitely admire the fineness of its craftsmanship: every inch of the muscles on your face is so real, so detailed that the corners of your eyes, eye sockets, cheekbones, mouth, and chin are like real people, and you can even feel the texture of your skin on the gold. The young pharaoh died suddenly for some reason. His golden mask is now displayed in the museum, watching people coming and going every day.

Due to the time difference, today was actually extended for Nalan Shiqi and Yunluo for 6 hours. It was only 3 pm after leaving the museum. According to the plan, Nalan Shiqi and Yunluo should take the train at 8:15 pm to Aswan, the southernmost city of Egypt. So Nalan Shiqi and Yunluo were arranged to go to the papyrus painting shop and a supermarket to shop. The authentic papyrus paintings are indeed quite beautiful. If you don’t care about the price of the authentic ones, you can consider it.

After all, it is one of the most representative cultural commodities in Egypt. However, it is necessary to bargain. The original price is hundreds or thousands of pounds, and it is basically a problem to cut Yunluo at 1/3 of the original price. After buying it, the salesman will not forget to ask you for cooling oil and ballpoint pens. They love these small things from China. The salesman at the papyrus painting shop is showing Nalan Shiqi and Yunluo how to make it. Nalan Shiqi and Yunluo bought this one.

It was around 6 o'clock in the morning when Nalan Shuqi and Yunluo arrived at Giza Railway Station. It was a long time since they saw such a simple and dilapidated train station. In fact, there was no point in derogatory saying this. Many people who have been to Egypt also felt that some people belittled and complained about the development of Egypt. Because there was a lot of fun. Nalan Shuqi and Yunluo had to wait at the train station until 8:15, and it was said that the train was 1 or 2 hours late... Nalan Shuqi and Yunluo took a ride on the ground, and started killing the Three Kingdoms, but the train didn't come even when they were tired. Later, I felt like I was working, waiting for the train to my destination in a strange city in confusion.

Picture description: The shooting location of the train station platform: Giza finally came at around 9 o'clock, and Nalan Shiqi and Yunluo came. The sleeper carriage was one room for two people. This was actually much better than the sleeper cars in China. Although the place was relatively narrow. You can use water on the train to provide dinner and breakfast, but you can't take a shower. It's really depressing to not take a bath for a day in high temperatures. The dinner was really not satisfactory, and the chicken couldn't bite it. Yunluo began to wonder if the best meal on the entire Egypt tour was the boxed meal of Egypt Airlines.

Because the day was lengthened for no reason, I was very tired when I got on the train. After eating, I simply packed up and planned to go to bed. However, the air conditioner was really frozen. It was useless to adjust the temperature... Yunluo's bed was a little wet and uncomfortable. However, it was too tired, and Nalan Shiqi and Yunluo fell asleep quickly. It is expected that Nalan Shiqi and Yunluo will arrive in the southernmost part of Egypt the next morning.

If the pyramid can be visited in the afternoon, it will probably be better. The sunset of the pyramid is spectacular, and it is said that there will be a sound and light performance in the evening. Camel riding in the pyramid scenic area, those who ride a camel, those who take photos with you, and small vendors, it is said that it is best to ignore it, as there are more likely to be hacked.

If you have the opportunity to go to Egypt by yourself, you must leave more time in the museum. However, since most cultural relics do not have any written introductions, you must do your homework in advance. And you can explain it when you go there.

The traffic in Cairo is really bad, with serious traffic jams, and it is not the same style of traffic jam. There is no lane line here, and cars are crossing and vertically on the road, which is quite chaotic. However, few people honk the whistle.

Toilets in Egyptian scenic spots are charged, usually 1 pound, and sometimes it is also possible to give cooling oil, but the toilet is free to go to the toilet at the place of eating. You must bargain when buying things, and the shops brought to the tour group are the same. However, supermarkets and other things probably won’t be cut.

As expected, the train was delayed by 2 hours. It was about 10 am when it arrived in Aswan. In ancient times, Aswan was a quarry. Swan was the name of a local stone, and A (a) was the prefix in Arabic. This is the origin of this place name.

When I arrived in Aswan, my first feeling was that it was hot! The high temperature in Aswan reached 40 or 50 degrees in midsummer, and it seemed like it was burning everywhere. I regretted wearing short-sleeved and long-sleeved trousers, but it would cool down because it could block the sun. I saw women walking with things near the train station. Many people in Egypt transport things like this, which was quite a sense of balance.

After leaving Aswan Railway Station, Nalan Shiqi and Yunluo rushed directly to the first attraction - Aswan Dam. There were several outposts along the way because it seemed to be a military zone. The Nile River flooded once a year, and the original Egyptians could not do agricultural work during the flooding period of the Nile River. Aswan Dam, the uppermost dam of the Nile River in Egypt, solved the Nile flooding and electricity problems for the entire Egypt, but it also faced a threat. Once the Aswan Dam is destroyed, Egypt will be submerged within 16 hours.

On the way to the dam, I passed the old Aswan dam. There was a snap on the car, and the glass caused a white arc to form on the photo.

The Aswan Dam is the third largest dam in the world, and the first is the Three Gorges Dam of the Yangtze River. Coincidentally, while both bring economic benefits, they face the problem of migration of more than 100,000 people and the flooding of cultural relics. The same is that both have started construction and completed construction under such problems. I am afraid no one can tell the pros and cons of it.

The dam was built during the period of President Nasser, so the artificial lake cut off by the dam is called Lake Nasser, which is the bottom of this lake, which may have flooded many temples of all sizes. The lake is blue and blue, reflecting the oasis behind it and the desert not far away, forming a wonderful view of life and death coexisting.

Among the temples flooded by the Aswan Dam, some important temples were also "rescued". The most famous one is the Temple of Abu Simbel, followed by the Temple of Phile. The Egyptians cut the temple into large stones, marked them with numbers, and then moved them to the destination to rebuild. It is said that the cost is too much, and the Egyptian government cannot afford the loan, so they directly gave some of the demolished temples to the lending country to pay off the debt. I don't know if it should be said that it is not important or it doesn't matter.

The Temple of Philare was originally on an island. After migrating to another island, it needed to take a boat to go. Its main features include three period styles - there is a temple from the Pharaoh period and a temple from the Roman period, and most of them are Ptolemaic dynasty buildings. When you go to the dock of the temple, there are occasionally some water birds, which are more lively.

It should be said that this is Yunluo's first contact with a temple in the true meaning (there is a temple opposite the Sphinx, but since it was from the ancient dynasty, it basically did not have much decoration and it was difficult to preserve it intact). The murals of the temple are very Egyptian and full of religious colors. The ancient Egyptians believed in polytheism, and the sun god was the highest god. The legend of the Temple of Philee is the place where the god of life Isis resurrected the god of death Olysis, who was killed by his brother's evil god Seit, and gave birth to the god of revenge, Herus, so most of the murals are related to this mythological story.

It feels very comfortable to walk in the temple. Because on the island, the breeze on the lake will blow from time to time. The towering stone pillars are full of the majesty and vicissitudes of history. The light and shadow between the stone pillars witness the rotation of time day after day. The front of the temple is a bit special, and the tower gate is blocked by the colonnade.

One of the famous murals on the exterior wall of the tower gate is the God of Hrus with the crown of the upper and lower Egypt in the middle. Inside the temple, the lights set off the atmosphere well - with the lights, you basically don't use flashlights.

The obelisk is a kind of stone tablet used for commemoration in ancient Egypt. The stone tablets that are dozens of meters high are completely a whole stone. It is hard to imagine how this stone was dug out and erected. Fortunately, the quarry in Aswan left an obelisk that Queen Hatshepsut did not complete, so people were able to understand the Central Plains.

The obelisk is a stone excavated from the entire mountain. It is easy to deal with around the stone, just dig it directly, but the problem is how to separate the obelisk from the ground. The ancient Egyptians dug small holes in the stone, stuffed wood chips, and then poured hot water every day, and the wood swelled to separate the stone from the ground. Then, when the Nile River floods, they transported the stone to the destination, and by digging a pit at the bottom of the obelisk, placing sand on the top, and pulling it with manpower, erect the obelisk.

This unfinished obelisk has to be said to be a historical regret, because if it is completed, it will become the highest obelisk in Egypt and belong to the only female pharaoh in Egypt's history. But it is also because of its size and material selection, it will be damaged before it is completed. You can see several deep cracks on the upside-down stone. However, it is precisely because of this regret that people can understand the practice of obelisk, which may be considered a blessing.

The obelisk is really hot. It has a high temperature of 45 degrees and no cover. From the direction of the shadow, you can see that the sun is basically direct, and it feels like the whole person is about to crack. This big stone is the obelisk, and you can see deep cracks.
