Built by Pharaoh Snefru, father of Cheops, the pyramid of Maidum appears to stand alone on the edge of the desert, near several smaller mastabas. The eight-layered structure is considered the first attempt at a true pyramid and is the first Egyptian pyramid to have an above-ground burial chamber with beautiful and innovative arched walls. Nowadays, you can only see the top three levels of the pyramid, which stand out in an aura of strength due to the sand and collapsed rubble.
