![]() 銆€銆€Photo taken on Sept. 22, 2012 shows a couple walking near the Bent Pyramid in Dahshur in southern Cairo, Egypt. The Bent Pyramid is an ancient Egyptian pyramid built under the Old Kingdom Pharaoh Sneferu (c. 2600 BC). As an unique example of early pyramid development in Egypt, this is the second pyramid built by Sneferu. The lower part of the pyramid rises from the desert at a 54-degree inclination, but the top section is built at the shallower angle of 43 degrees, lending the pyramid its very obvious "bent" appearance.
