Taken in at once, the area is an uncanny reinterpretation of Ancient Egypt. In front, a lone sphinx reclines, a perpetual emptiness in its eyes. At night, an eerie beam of bright, white light shoots skyward from the pyramid’s north point, visible for miles and miles beyond in any direction. It is difficult to see inside through the opaque, onyx glass.
In the thick of the Las Vegas Strip stands an immense, glossy, jet-black pyramid.
