Jul
The last week of August is a very popular one for Egypt’s Art Festival. The event is considered to be the greatest art festival in the Arab world. But it’s not limited to regional art. Indeed, the annual festival is an important showcase for artworks from all around Africa, Europe and Asia.
Celebrations of Egypt’s Armed Forces Day, October 6, date to 1973 when the country and Syria attacked Israel in what was to become the October War or Yom Kippur War. Egyptian President Anwar el-Sadat launched the ill-fated in mission in order to boost Egyptian and Arab psyches. They had been severely bruised by 1967, in which both Egypt and Syria lost land to Israel. Armed Forces Day is marked by military parades plus patriotism-enhancing programmes on television, and displays of fireworks. October 6 came to be marked by additional significance when President Sadat was assassinated by Islamists at an Armed Forces Day parade in Cairo in 1981. Partially as a result of war that began on the original Armed Forces Day in 1973, Egypt and Israel signed a peace agreement in 1979.
At sunrise on October 22 every year, the crowds that have assembled at Abu Simbel temple in the darkness look for shafts of sunlight making their way across the complex. They gradually illuminate the stone images of Ramses II, Ra and Amun. The stunning is spectacular sight also occurs in February. Ramses II, an Egyptian pharaoh, wanted to attain immortality, or at least guarantee that he would not be forgotten. So he decreed that the astronomical spectacle coincide with his birthday—February 22—and again on the date of his coronation—October 22. In the early 1960s, in order to allow for the construction of Aswan Dam and creation of Lake Nasser, the entire temple was painstakingly taken apart stone by stone and rebuilt on higher land.
