This is the magnificent tomb of the religious head of the Muslims. It has a dignified granite structure of late 1950 origin, which looks like the Fatimid mausoleum of Cairo. The Mausoleum has a wonderful vision from where one can see the white villa of Aga Khan, and also the St. Simeons Monastery situated on the western bank of Aswan. Aga Khan was one of the richest Monasteries when it was built in the year 1945.
