The '''[[Wikipedia:Great Pyramid of Giza|Great Pyramid]]''' (also known as '''Pyramid of Khufu''') (Arabic: '''الهرم الأكبر''', ''al-Haram al-Akbar'' or  '''هرم خوفو''', ''Haram Khufu'') is the largest pyramid in [[Cairo]], [[Egypt]]. [[Luigi]] once visited it during the events of the [[Mario is Missing! (PC)|PC]], [[Mario is Missing! (Super Nintendo Entertainment System)|SNES]], and [[Mario is Missing! (Nintendo Entertainment System)|NES versions of ''Mario is Missing!'']]. At the time of his stay, the [[Top Brick of the Great Pyramid]] was missing; [[Koopa Troopa]]s had stolen it and it was Luigi's task to find it and return it to the pyramid.

The details of the engineering and building of the wondrous Pyramids still remain a mystery today.''
