WOWOW - TODAY WAS A TOP 10 TRAVEL DAY OF MY ENTIRE LIFE.
I made it to SUDAN, country #173 and one that I've long desired to visit for many reasons, but none more than to see the ancient (forgotten) pyramids. There are more pyramids (200+) in this tiny section of Sudan than in all of Egypt, and they are just as old and impressive!
My Sudanese friends and I took a camel ride to explore around the area and we were the only ones around. Not another soul in sight.
If you ask me, this experience was about 10X more enjoyable than the Pyramids of Giza in Egypt, which is now flooded by tour bus after bus. Add this place to your list!

Sudan: The 'forgotten' pyramids of an ancient desert city - BBC Travel Show
More than 200km (124 miles) from the Sudanese capital Khartoum, the remains of an ancient city stand in the desert.
The Nubian pyramids in Meroe are smaller than the more famous ones in Egypt but there are many more of them.
Mystery in Sudan: The Lost Pharaohs | TRACKS
David Adams’ journey takes us into a Sudan we rarely see. On the flat waters of the Nile, he hears the creaking of the rigging catching the wind as river-travelers have for thousands of years. While the battlements of ancient fortresses standing on shore are occasional reminders of the region’s violent past, he is able to contemplate that era from the relative peace of the wide river.

The Forgotten Pyramids of Meroë in Sudan
In late October 2021, we were thrilled to visit the Nubian pyramids of Meroe in north Sudan. We viewed them here - in the beautiful red-orange hue of sunset. A fitting time to visit the burial place of the Nubian kings.
Up on a desert cliff not far from the banks of the Nile River, lies nearly 200 ancient pyramids — many of them tombs of the kings and queens of the Meroitic Kingdom which ruled the area for more than 900 years (750 BCE to 350 CE) . The Meroë pyramids, smaller than their Egyptian cousins, sport narrow bases and steep angles on the sides. They are deeply inspired by the culture of Pharaonic Egypt.

There are More Pyramids in Sudan Than in Egypt #Africa ????????
The Mysterious pyramids of Sudan
There are more pyramids in Sudan (Nubia) than in Egypt (Kemet) #Africa
Pyramids in Africa are unique figures that symbolise beyond the advancement of Africa as a continent. Take for instance, till date many believe civilization started from Egypt. The Great Pyramid at Giza is the largest in the world, filling 13 acres at its base. At 481 feet tall, it was the tallest structure in the world until the advent of modern skyscrapers.
The pyramid builders used 2.3 million stone blocks, each weighing between 2.5 and 15 tons, to construct the Great Pyramid. Pyramids today stand as a reminder of the ancient Egyptian glorification of life after death, and in fact, the pyramids were built as monuments to house the tombs of the pharaohs. Death was seen as merely the beginning of a journey to the other world.
Inspired, and Heavily influenced by the Egyptians, is the Nubian pyramid of Sudan. The Nubian kings built their own pyramids 1000 years after Egyptian burial method had changed.
In a desert in eastern Sudan, along the banks of the Nile River, lies a collection of nearly 200 ancient pyramids—many of them tombs of the kings and queens of the Meroitic Kingdom which ruled the area for more than 900 years. The Meroë pyramids, smaller than their Egyptian cousins, are considered Nubian pyramids, with narrow bases and steep angles on the sides, built between 2,700 and 2,300 years ago.
Why are theses Pyramids mysterious: The Egyptians were the first humans to believe in After life. This first was the reason behind the creation of the pyramids. These pyramids were built over a millennium to serve as burial chambers for their royalty.
They believed that the pyramids eased the monarchs' passage into the afterlife, and the sites served as centers of religious activity.

Forbidden Tunnel inside the Bent Pyramid of Dahshur
When I was alone inside the Bent Pyramid which is located in Dahshur south of Giza and the Great Pyramid, I noticed a door that was locked. It had a hole in the fence so I decided to climb through to see what is inside.
I found myself in a long and steep passage and there was a pit which was covered with wooden planks. Also there was a very strong wind coming from this tunnel.
On the right side there was a white limestone block that was sticking out of the floor which made it look very special.
I continued to walk inside the tunnel and I switched off my flash light to see if there was any light coming from the end of the passage. It was pitch black dark.

What’s that under the Great Pyramid?
????Join me May 17-28, 2023 for the Megalithic Marvels of Egypt Tour
On the Megalithic Marvels of Egypt tour we were privileged to receive a 2 hour long after-hours visit inside the Great Pyramid of Giza. Upon entering the descending passage, our first big stop was to visit the subterranean chamber - the basement of the Great Pyramid! I was taken back by how long and steep this passage leading down underneath the pyramid was (approx 300+ ft). While the higher passageways & chambers were lined and finished with precision megalithic blocks, the passage leading down was unfinished in that it was cut straight from the bedrock. Once we reached the bottom, the passageway leveled out & we had to literally crawl on our hands and knees through thick pyramid dust the final section (approx 10 yards) before entering the subterranean chamber. This chamber seemed essentially like a big square with 3 levels - the upper level with smallish cutouts or storage type areas, the main level which featured this circular fence, which in turn, sealed us off from the lower level which is a massive pit with a squared out bottom that featured what appeared to be a nubbed circle popping up in the center of it. What do you think the purpose of this pit was? I will share my theories in more videos coming soon… on the far side of the main level was another tight passageway that led to another smallish room.

Sudan - Pyramids of Meroe (More pyramids in Sudan than you can count)
What can I say about Sudan? Well it's beautiful, and so were the people we met in Sudan.
The main tourist attraction if you can call it that (we didn't meet any other tourists) were the Nubian pyramids of Meroe. But before we get on to those and other historical sites we had to visit Khartoum (the capital city of Sudan) to rest and to get our permits for the various locations.
We camped out at the university campus in Khartoum and were honoured to meet and share breakfast with the football team, we were invited into homes for meals, shown where the Blue Nile and White Nile met, offered help around every corner, it truly was a pleasure.
The completely unique experience of being the only people to be exploring the pyramids of Meroe and the archaeological digs at various temple locations is one we will never forget. Meroe and Sudan is one of the places that I would have loved to go back to and visit again one day, hopefully it will be safe to do so again one day.
Land Rover Africa Overland
--------------------------------------------
Twenty years ago my wife and I packed up our life in the UK and set off to drive overland in our Land Rover Defender with the aim of driving all the way to the Cape Town in South Africa, a journey which will take us from coast to coast along the length and breadth of Africa.
Because this journey was twenty years ago, there were no smartphones, no google maps, and no digital cameras. The photos taken on the journey were on transparencies, designed to be projected. I have taken photographs of some of those slides for the purpose of showing in this video.

Sudan's Pyramids: A Rival to Egypt's Pyramids | Sudan Pyramids vs Egyptian Pyramids
The Sudanese pyramids are primarily found in three main sites: Meroe, Gebel Barkal, and Nuri. The site of Meroe, situated near the banks of the Nile River, is home to the largest collection of Sudanese pyramids. Over two hundred pyramids grace the landscape, rising proudly against the backdrop of the golden desert.
As you stand before these ancient structures, the magnitude of their existence overwhelms the senses. Constructed between 8th century BC and 4th century AD, these pyramids served as tombs for the kings and queens of the Kushite civilization. Each pyramid tells a story of power, lineage, and the desire for eternal life.
Unlike the pyramids of Egypt, Sudanese pyramids have steep angles and smaller bases. They were built with a combination of bricks and stones, carefully crafted and meticulously aligned to create these awe-inspiring structures. The passing of time may have weathered their surfaces, but their grandeur remains intact.
