Memphis Museum Egypt  

Memphis is the old capital city of Egypt . The city of Memphis is today the place where about five cities and towns of the south of Cairo lie. It is the home of a lot of artifacts that are worth seeing. The remains of the ancient city were converted to an open-air museum, and the great temple of Ptah is one of the sites of the open-air museum. The temple was for the worship of the creator god Ptah. It was the most significant temple in Memphis. Our Egyptologist will give you step by step history of the various Pharaohs that built personal temples for Ptah. The account will accompany the sights of the remains of these temples. There is the Temple of Ptah of Rameses II, Temple of Ptah and Sekhmet of Rameses II, mad the Temple of Ptah of Merneptah.

The Colossus of Ramesses II in the open-air museum is also worth seeing. Ramesses the Great was a pharaoh of Egypt in the nineteenth dynasty. He is regarded as the greatest pharaoh in Egypt in the New Kingdom. The Colossus is made of Limestone and is around 10 meters in length. Exceptional beauty is beholding the pharaoh in the white crown of Upper Egypt. 

The city of Memphis also contains the temple of Hathor. The temple was traced back to the reign of Ramesses II. The remains of the temple were discovered and unearthed in 1970.
