The Temples
Season 1 Episode 4 of 4
Alice visits upper Egypt and completes her journey in the city of Aswan, whose quarries provided the granite for the country's ancient monuments. The towns along the railway line each have their very own Ancient Egyptian temple. Alice finishes up taking a boat to see the extraordinary Philae Temple that was rebuilt in the 1970s due to flooding caused by the Aswan dam
