Abu Simbel was relocated in the 1960s to prevent its submersion due to the construction of the Aswan High Dam. The temples were meticulously cut into large blocks and transported to a higher elevation, about 200 feet away from their original site. This engineering feat involved precise planning and innovative techniques to ensure the structures were reassembled accurately. The project was a collaborative effort led by UNESCO, with support from several countries.
