Sightseeing near Sakkara
The Egyptian pyramids and ruins near Sakkara are from the
Old Kingdom; the step pyramid was built before the smooth sided
ones. There are several tombs with beautiful paintings. There are many
excavations in progress. One can ride around to them on horses or camels,
although they are not normally open to the public. Nearby are the pyramids
of Abu Sir and Dashour. At Dashour, you may climb down into the Red Pyramid.
The inside of the Red Pyramid is quite different from the king and queens'
chambers in Giza. Each of these sites is an easy car ride away from Sakkara,
or a longish horse or camel ride, which can certainly be arranged.
