The number of those who have some purposes internally and recently at the time of increase rapidly those who enjoy traveling abroad and start on our journey has increased. Delicious only local food, shopping, and sightseeing ･･･ It is “World Heritage round. ” the last few years especially most remarkable.
World Heritage Activity of UNESCO was assumed that saved the Nubia ruins group from the crisis of going under water according to a Aswan high dam construction of Egypt that started in the 1960’s, and started from the Nubia going under water ruins relief campaign.

Largeness and the [tsuno] Abu Simbel in the second grade of elementary school temple moved from former position on completely 60m by this dismantling and reconstructing the building. The opportunity of protecting ruins, the building, and nature, etc. with historical value from development internationally arose starting with this.
Aswan High Dam is a huge dam of 3600m in width and 111m in height from the town from which Aswan exists in the point of 12km to the south. The volume is as many as about 164 pieces (203.79 millionm2 and Tokyo Dome). It is huge construction of which Egypt boasts.

People Egyptian Nubian to live with World Heritage
Posted by 9b | Filed under World Heritage (2)
It is from going under water by the construction of Aswan High Dam becoming the chance of World Heritage Activity of UNESCO to the campaign for Abu Simbel ruins to try to save the start Nubia ruins group.
It was said to this Nubia provinces Nubian, and appearance different from Egyptian people lived for a long time. It is people who have the hair curled dark-skinned. The person who visits by friendly of the boast and inborn as we are neither [ejipushan], nor African, and Nubian, etc. is invited as it is warm. The village has extended if the north is seen from the hill in the cave grave in Aswan that is. It is a Nubia village. It charters it, and it is surroundings [rukotomo] and [kimasu] going out of a multiplication combination track small near the port under the cave grave. Nubian has the history that has been ruled as a dependancy in Egypt. However, the peculiar language and culture are maintained, and it is possible to catch a glimpse of the look still.
It is said to Egypt hajj and there is a custom that the people who did to the pilgrimage draw the picture on the wall of the house. A peculiar picture (animal where the wing grows) to Nubia is drawn on a white wall of houses of Nubian by others though the traffic to Mecca in Saudi Arabia and the picture of the temple are drawn usually. Crocodilian of disregarding stuffing is decorated with the manitou the door in houses in the Nubia village ahead. Moreover, there is a custom of giving tattoo with dyestuff of nature that is called “Henna”. It continues for about three weeks by designing a beautiful geometrical pattern of the Nubia style.
UNESCO registered the Groups of buildings of Nubian from Abu Simbel to [ferae] in World Heritage (cultural heritage) in 1979. The Nubia museum opened depending like yen of UNESCO in 1997 same. It is exhibited in the lighting with a beautiful history and customs in the Nubia provinces disregarded in the Islam age at prehistory. The pattern of dismantling and reconstructing the Abu Simbel temple is introduced indeed in the round.
Certainly, ruins with the history were exposed to the crisis from which the continuing was doubted by constructing Aswan High Dam. However, it is the one fact that green is returning to the desert because of the dam construction. The mark of dismantling and reconstructing the building remains in the Abu Simbel temple.
Enjoy the evening cool holding the courtyard beautifully maintained concurrently and thinking about the problem during maintenance of historic heritage, people’s lives, and environmental developments while strolling might be also good.

Abu Simbel temple
Posted by 9b | Filed under World Heritage (2)
Abu Simbel temple where it had misgivings about going under water by Aswan high dam construction in the 1960’s. It is near the nasser lake that is the artificial lake that was able to be done by the south 280km and a Aswan high dam construction of Aswan.
The Abu Simbel temple was constructed with two [ramesesu] generations at the 19th dynasty of the ancient Egyptian new kingdom age. It is about 3300 years ago. Two [ramesesu] generations have left my colossus for the Carnac temple and Luxor castle. The self-endeavor for recognition might have been very strong. It is even if four two [ramesesu] generation images soar exactly in front of the wolf lord. The height is 20m. It is just overwhelmed to the size of the remainder. 22 baboons with which lining up on the colossus in a row is pleased with sunrise. The smile spills instinctively in the unique appearance.
Prisoner of war’s relief remains in this side of the entrance. The face such as African captives is obviously different from Arab.
There is an Abu Simbel small temple as quietly drawing close to the wolf lord next to the ..Abu Simbel temple.. accurate Abu Simbel wolf lord. It is a cave temple that two [ramesesu] generations built for the queen felt ant. Their children’s images are carved for one’s four two [ramesesu] generations, two [neferutoari] images, and one’s feets.
The show of the sound and light is held in the Abu Simbel temple at night. It starts from the relief of the temple by UNESCO, and the married love of the princess [neferutoari] and the history of the fight are unfolded with two [ramesesu] generations under starry sky. That heat in daytime breezes and the cool rush of night air breezes from the nasser lake like the lie.
Because the desire of the time of the eternity is won when the Abu Simbel temple of largeness and the smallness to which the light is improved is seen, and this wonderful ruins do not sink in the bottom of the water of the dam, I quite think it was really good.

[Ishukeru] national park has been registered in the world natural heritage of UNESCO as migrant’s important relay ground since 1980. However, the construction of the dam in the river in the lake that was the head of a river brought the substantial change to the ecosystem of the lake and the marsh.
The amount of the fresh water that flows in the lake because of the dam has decreased sharply. Therefore, the fresh water plant like Yoshi and the carex, etc. replaced the plant of halophilism. This has rapidly decreased the number of individuals of migrants.
