Saqqara Tour from Cairo
Saqqara is famous for containing the Step Pyramid, which looks like a large staircase and was constructed a long time ago.
It was built using large stone blocks stacked on top of each other, with each layer being smaller than the one below. People used to climb the steps to reach the top, which was a special place where important figures were buried. Saqqara is a popular tourist destination when visiting Egypt and is considered the earliest pyramid to have been built in Egyptian culture. It served as the royal burial site for the ancient Kingdom up to the third dynasty.
In ancient Egyptian belief, the Pharaoh was not only a ruler on Earth but also considered a god or the son of the Sun God Amun-Ra.
He was seen as a servant of divine will and a mediator between the gods of Egypt and the people. Therefore, constructing such massive pyramids was a way to ensure a better life for the Pharaoh and his descendants in the afterlife.
