Buried under the sand for a long time, one needs to climb uphill and take sometimes uncharted path to discover one of the best-kept secrets of the pharaoh dynasties. Here, Egyptologists believe there once stood a perfect pyramid that was the tomb of pharaoh Djedefre. A pyramid hidding a pit 20m deep along with a huge passage going deep inside the building. Djedefre’s pyramid in Abu Rawash remains a key element to understand the secrets of Egyptian architects. Experts consider this pyramid - now only 12m high - a unique site. A monument torn open, that looks like a work in progress. As if time had stopped. A treasure that can be studied from every possible angle.
