But in an extraordinary effort, 50 countries collaborated to relocate the monuments. That sparked the creation of UNESCO's World Heritage Convention, which now protects over 1200 heritage properties across the world. #AswanDam #AbuSimbelRelocation #NubianMonuments #LakeNasser #Egypt #UNESCOWorldHeritage #WorldHeritageSites #ArchaeologicalSurveyOfInd
