Aga Khan Mausoleum, Aswan.

The story of this great mausoleum goes back to the year 1930 when Sultan Muhammad Shah, Aga Khan III met the love of his life, Yvette Labrousse.
Yvette Labrousse was a French woman who lived with her family in Cannes and Lyon. At the age of 24 she became Miss Lyon and only a year later she was named Miss France.
She represented her country, travelling all over the world but she had particularly loved Egypt and moved there permanently in 1930s.
The Aga Khan met her at a party and love blossomed and in 1944 before the 2nd world war ended, they got married in Switzerland with 29 years difference in age between them.
They spent winter in Aswan and the Aga Khan had a palace built for them on a plateau in the Nile and later a mausoleum was built next to the palace with a tomb made of pure pink marble. The Aga Khan chose this resting place on the west bank of the Nile to be buried. He died in 1947 and was buried according to his will.
Since his death his wife, who was known now as Begum Umm Habiba would place a red rose upon his tomb and continued to do this for more than forty years until she died and was buried next to her soul mate and love in 2000 at the age of 94.
