A view of a policeman at the Abu Simbel temple in the southern Egyptian region of Nubia. Egypt suffered from a terrorist problem a few years back that impacted its tourism industry since a few of the terror attacks were targeted at tourists (in fact, one of the major attacks at the Hatsheput temple near Luxor killed off more than 50+ tourists). As a result, there were a number of measures implemented to reduce the threat to tourists (in the case of Abu Simbel, this meant that tourists could not go off to Abu Simbel on their own; instead there were specified times when all the vehicles were bundled in a convoy.
