Overview

King Snefru built both pyramids at Dahshur: the Bent Pyramid, whose angle changes halfway up, and the Red Pyramid, the first true smooth-sided pyramid, which you can usually go inside. The site gets a fraction of Giza's crowds. On the way back you stop at Memphis, Egypt's first capital, for the fallen colossus of Ramses II and the Alabaster Sphinx.
