• Saqqara (Sakkara) Pyramids - Saqqara, an ancient Egyptian burial site near Cairo, is renowned for the Step Pyramid of Djoser, the oldest stone pyramid. It served as a significant burial ground for over 3,000 years, covering various dynasties. The site showcases Egypt’s architectural development and includes tombs, temples, and underground galleries.
• Memphis and Sakkara - Memphis, established around 3200 BCE by King Menes, was the first capital of ancient Egypt. It was a bustling political and religious hub, housing the great temple of Ptah, the creator god. Today, its ruins near Cairo feature statues, temples, and the renowned Alabaster Sphinx.
• Pyramids of Dahshour - Dahshur is a vital necropolis, home to some of Egypt’s most significant and well-preserved early pyramids, mainly those constructed by Pharaoh Sneferu (c. 2600 BCE), the founder of the 4th Dynasty. These two grand monuments signify a key moment in ancient Egyptian architecture—the shift from the older step pyramids to the smooth-sided “true” pyramids.
• Dahshur Bent & Red Pyramid - The Bent Pyramid in Dahshur’s necropolis was built for Pharaoh Sneferu (c. 2600 BCE) and was meant to be the first true, smooth-sided pyramid. However, structural challenges led builders to alter the angle of inclination midway. This “bend” highlights a significant engineering milestone, paving the way for the perfectly shaped pyramids that followed, including the nearby Red Pyramid. The Red Pyramid in Dahshur’s necropolis is historically significant as the world’s first successfully completed smooth-sided pyramid. Constructed for Pharaoh Sneferu around 2590 BCE, the Red Pyramid marks the evolution from the Step Pyramid (Saqqara) and the Bent Pyramid (Dahshur) to the ideal geometric shape of the Old Kingdom. Its reddish tint, which gives it its modern name, is due to the underlying limestone.
