Lake Nasser Qasr Ibrim Egypt Fortress Stones Ruins Derelict Rubble,

with an early Christian church and later mosque on shores of Lake Nasser, a short sail from Abu Simbel. It once dominated a bend in the River Nile perched on a high bluff but now with the creation of Lake Nasser, is a rather unprepossessing site which is only viewed from the stationary cruiseboat and visited as part of a Lake Nasser cruise.
