Luxor, Egypt

The Nile provided a perfect highway for the unification of ancient Egypt: ride the current north, and let the Trade Winds carry you south. The felucca captains of today, the masters of the Nile, use the same forces of nature thanks to the ingenuity of their ancestors who began thinking about human-environment relationships more than 5,000 years ago.
