Pyramid Abu Roascio

Continuing to acquaint readers with the pyramids of Egypt; Sneferu was the first pyramid (broken) and the pyramid Userkaf. Now it is the turn of the pyramid at Abu Roascio.

So, the most north "piramidostroeniya." And do not say that it is a pyramid, because Egyptologists divided in opinion ... it could be a solar temple, rather than the pyramid in the classic sense. But be that as it may, for the moment, it is one of the pyramids of ancient Egypt, though almost completely destroyed. From the construction of which there are few, but worth a visit. Visit its not easy, because in the dangerous area, not every taxi driver finds itself. And immediately after the visit and we have a little "hitch" with the local lads. But nothing happened.

Pyramid is a modern stone quarry, and there probably was and ancient quarry.
