Djoser’s Sufen pyramid was the first attempt to build a pyramid

The Knick Pyramid was built in the time of King Snefru and this was the second attempt to build a real pyramid. As the third highest pyramid in Egypt, the Pyramid of Snofru is one of the most impressive Egyptian sights today. Since the pyramids of Dahshur were in a military restricted area for a long time and were only opened to the public in the mid-1990s, they are still relatively unknown and still an insider tip among Egyptian sights.

The pyramids are certainly the most spectacular evidence of a high culture on the Nile.
