More Details

Memphis:
Built by the kings of the 1st Dynasty, Memphis was the capital of the Ancient Civilization around 3000 years B.C after the unification of Upper & Lower Egypt; though not much have survived from it, little remains including scattered statues, alabaster beds, gigantic sarcophagi and sphinxes providing clues to the religious life of the city and a giant lying statue of Ramses II.

Complex of Sakkara:
The step pyramid of Sakkara is considered as an evolution in the concept of pyramids from the simple mastaba to the pyramids in its final form in the region in Sakkara. It was built as a step pyramid, consisting of 6 steps on top of each other, each smaller than the one below. The area is also well known for its marvelous “mastabas’ (Tombs of the nobles).

Dahshur:
A necropolis containing the first true pyramid in Egypt, the northern Pyramid of Snefru, the founder of the 4th Dynasty. Within its limits, the site also includes the Bent Pyramid of Snefru, the Pyramid of Amenemhat II, the Pyramid of Senusert III & the Pyramid of Amenemhat III.
