The Serapeum of Saqqara is a long underground gallery where the sacred Apis bulls of Memphis were buried.
Its tunnels hold more than twenty huge granite and basalt sarcophagi, each carved from a single block and weighing up to 70 tonnes, an astonishing feat of ancient engineering.
Visit with the rest of Saqqara; the galleries are cool and well lit.
Book your trip when it is perfectly designed and customized, just for you.
