Saqqara/Memphis

Ancient Saqqara/Memphis was a vast necropolis stretching some thirty miles along the Nile. The area experienced continual building for many centuries which merits it being a wonderful respresentation of architecture and art for most of the Dynasties. During the 3rd Dynasty one of the grandest and most beautiful of the stone buildings was constructed. The Pyramid Complex of Djoser, built by the famous Imhotep, is an architectural achievement. Without the legacy of centuries of stone work, the complex remains a wonder.
