Discovered in 1818 and dedicated to Képhren, the son of Khéops, this pyramid measures 136 m. Smaller than its father's pyramid, it nevertheless appears more imposing, as it was built on a raised base. At the top, it retains its attractive limestone facing. With a less complex internal structure than Khufu's, its entrance is located on the north face, from where a steep corridor leads to the only burial chamber, which has a very low ceiling. Rounding the pyramid, you'll find some welcome peace and quiet, with a view of the Princess Pyramids.

Plus petite que Khéops. Il n'en demeure pas moins majestueuse. Le site de Gizeh reste un des meilleurs souvenirs d'Egypte.

Le parement
La particularité de cette pyramide réside dans sa cime, recouverte encore du parement qui habillait à l'origine toutes les pyramides de Gizeh.
Le spectacle est propose de l'autre côté, à l'opposé de Khéops, est tout juste magnifique.

Ce monument ayant bravé le temps est extraordinaire ! Avec le billet d'entrée du plateau de Gizeh, on dispose d'une vue grandiose. Un billet supplémentaire est nécessaire pour visiter l'intérieur !
