In Egypt's far north, scientific experts attempt to learn more about the ancient sunken cities at the mouth of the Nile.

In Cairo, the floods of the Nile made it possible for ancient Egyptians to supply water to the canals that were used to build the pyramids.

Built on the banks of the Nile, Luxor is home to the greatest monuments of the New Kingdom such as the Karnak complex and the Dendera temple. Here more than elsewhere, the river has moved a lot.

In the city of Aswan, the first cataract of the Nile is formed, which makes it the natural border with Africa, the gateway to the gold of the pharaohs.
