Journey deep into the Red Pyramid

Never thought I would step foot on the land of the pharaohs ..and only then have I realized how impressive the pyramids are! Yesterday, we visited the Pyramid Giza (http://journeyofmylifendestiny.blogspot.com/2012/08/the-land-of-pharaoh.html) and today, we are venturing deep into the Red Pyramid.

First off, the Red Pyramid was built by the Pharaoh Sneferu, father of Khufu. It was said that according to the ancient depictions, the pyramid took 10 years and seven months to build. --source: http://www.sacred-destinations.com

This pyramid holds a special place in my memory, and I bet it would be the same for you, since I am taking you with me to explore the inside of the pyramid --right into its chambers.

Can you see the way in? Now ...what are you waiting for? C'mon in ..
Lemme lead the way ...
View from the bottom of the pyramid
Yes... Are you still there?
Or are you still down there? Hurry up, we ain't got whole day :-)
View from down there ...
Where are you?
The Second Chamber
There are three chambers inside the Red Pyramid, the third one was believed to be the burial chamber.

Burial Chamber ...


I hope you had fun stepping into the Red Pyramid with me and now time to climb back out ...-ugh, why there are so many steps?


  

Finally, we are out now and let's plan on going to the Valley of Kings tomorrow --what do ya say? 

Until next stop,
Journey of Life
