Among the main tourist sites there is only one considered to be the main and on top of the list, it is site of the pyramids and in particular the Pyramids of Giza. there are three main pyramids that were built in the time of the 4th dynasty circa 4650 BC.

Unfortunately this is one of the forgotten sites. You will rarely find it included in the regular tourist itineraries, as most of the visitors nowadays follow a very traditional itinerary, which mainly includes the traditional sites such as Giza pyramids and the step pyramid in Saqqara !

Sakkara is one of the most extensive archaeological sites in Egypt; it was the cemetery for Memphis the capital of ancient Egypt.

Saqqara is also the site of many tombs from the first and 2nd dynasty. Mostly made out of mud break sand other tombs that are made of limestone decorated with daily life scenes....

Staring in surprise at the sight of the Pyramids of Dahshour always evoke in me a great past of Ancient Egypt. Although that area is not a prominent visitors site like the plateau of Giza it seems to me like a wonderful book which tells us glorious events of the Ancient Egyptian History.Dahshur was indeed one of the most important cemeteries of the vast necropolis of the great capital Memphis. It is about 30 km to the south of Giza, located to the southern wing of Saqqara. The area contains some of the pyramids of the IV and the XII dynasties. In fact, the great king Snefru ( 2680-2656 B.C) the founder of the IV dynasty was the first to choose the area to build his royal tomb since it was near to the capital Memphis....
