Step Pyramids and a Mosque


The last full day we headed to Djoser to see some of the oldest pyramids built. These are step pyramids not the conventional pyramids everyone thinks about



These were more my style. Outside of the city and almost no one around!



We asked our guide if we could walk around. So he said go ahead and waited in the car.


There were a few local guys there with camels



One of them took us into some tombs to check out the hieroglyphs




We found out he wasnt supposed to though.......

But we kept going




The last stop of our 3 day whirlwind tour was at Mohamed Ali's Mosque





It was unreal! Just so beautiful









It was on a hill and looked out over the city so the view was interesting



We then went back tot he hotel and had a good nights rest. The next morning we had an early flight back to Moscow.
