2. Saqqara Step Pyramid
- First, head to Saqqara, home to the famous Step Pyramid, the oldest pyramid structure ever built. Constructed between 2670 BC and 2650 BC during the reign of Pharaoh Djoser, this monumental structure marked the beginning of pyramid construction in ancient Egypt. Designed by the architect Imhotep, the Step Pyramid is considered a groundbreaking achievement in architecture and remains an iconic testament to the early stages of Egyptian royal tomb design.
3. Memphis City
- Next, visit Memphis, the ancient capital of Egypt, founded around the 31st century BC by Pharaoh Narmer. Located just 20 km (12 miles) south of Cairo, Memphis was the center of political and cultural life in ancient Egypt, and it housed the powerful god Ptah. The ruins of this once-thriving metropolis include the famous Alabaster Sphinx and the statue of Ramses II, along with numerous other important archaeological remains from the Old Kingdom.

Highlights include the Bent Pyramid of Pharaoh Sneferu (2613 BC–2589 BC), which is famous for its unique bent shape, and the Red Pyramid (2575 BC–2551 BC), Egypt’s first true smooth-sided pyramid. Dahshur also features the Black Pyramid of Amenemhat III (1860 BC–1814 BC), adding further depth to the site’s rich history.
