Title:

Nile from the Nile Hilton

Description:

The mere mention of the name of the Nile evokes for modern man images of pyramids, great temples, fantastic tales of mummies, and wondrous treasures. But the Nile represents life itself to the people of Egypt, ancient and modern. In fact, for thousands of years, the river has made life possible for hundreds of thousands of people and animals, and has shaped the culture we today are only beginning to truly understand.
