The Perfection of Merenre Appears
Menrenre's Beauty Shines
The pyramid of Merenre looking west with the pyramid of Djedkare-Isesi on the left.
The outer casing of Merenre's pyramid has vanished. The pyramids core is has been greatly robber. It is doubtful weather the pyramid was ever finished since Merenre only ruled for 9 years.
The heap which was in its heyday called 'Merenre's beauty shines' has not survived well the 4300 years since its construction. This view is looking south.
