The High Dam : Modern Arts

The Aswan High Dam is one of the most important achievements of the last century in Egypt, so that for many years it was a symbol of the new era of the revolution in 1952. It supplied Egypt with water and electricity, and secured the country from the threat of the devastating inundation.

As a result of its construction, a great lake, Lake Nasser, was formed. The lake varies in width, with a maximum width of about 10 km in some places, and a length of 500 km. It runs between Egypt and the Sudan and it is the largest man-made lake! This lake also has an immense fish population, which is commercially exploited. Because water lifting caused the threat of damage and the loss of many Nubian monuments, the Egyptian Government, with the assistance of UNESCO and other countries, made considerable efforts to save the most important monuments of Nubia.
