In the second half of the 19th century, Egypt
became the main destination for European
tourists in search of adventure, exoticism and the
mystery of its origins, following in the footsteps
of great writers such as Flaubert, Gérard de
Nerval, Pierre Loti and Agatha Christie. The
first cruises on the Nile were organized using
large sailing boats called dahabeya. A famous
French writer said, “Going up the Nile! These
two words meant the most ideal journey a man
can undertake.” It was the English entrepreneur
Thomas Cook who, around 1880, introduced
the use of the first steamboats to go up the Nile
and be able to visit the monuments of Pharaonic
Egypt more quickly. Even today, sailing on
the great river that crosses the country like a
major road remains the best way to visit the
extraordinary archaeological sites of Egypt.

DETAILED MAPS
The Middle Egypt is the territory between Lower
Egypt that includes the Nile Delta and the region
South of Cairo and Upper Egypt that extends
from the city of Asyut to Abu Simbel. The Middle
Egypt is an area rich in archaeological sites of great
importance and undeniable charm but is still little
known and frequented, excluded from all tourist
itineraries. Informations about the Middle Egypt
are scarce as well as images of its artistic treasures
leaving confused visitors who decide to venture into
this region known especially because here,at Tell
el Amarna is located Akhetaten the ephemeral but
extraordinary capital created by the heretic pharaoh
Akhenaten, unique example in all the Egypt of a
large urban settlement.
This guide, for the first time illustrates in a synthetic
but essential way all the main archaeological sites
of the Middle Egypt thanks to numerous images,
historical reconstructions and detailed maps.
