“Ibrahim also mentioned the new vision of using the mountainous highlands surrounding it to build a new hotel or motels in Nubian architectural style, as well as bazaars, cafeterias and restaurants.
The vision also includes the establishment of a museum that tells the story of the rescue of the temples similar to the museum of Abu Simbel, to provide all the historical and archaeological information and enjoy a full touristic experience.”
Yuk!!
Hope I’ll be long dead before they desecrate this peaceful spot.
Philae Island to be turned into a tourist Mecca.

Never found it much of a hassle myself, maybe the fact that you have to get there via a small boat controlls the numbers better.
