• Pyramids of Giza - The Pyramids of Giza are among the most renowned and breathtaking archaeological sites globally, situated on the Giza Plateau near Cairo, Egypt. This site features three primary pyramids, constructed during Egypt’s Fourth Dynasty (circa 2600–2500 BC), along with several smaller “queen” pyramids, temples, and the Great Sphinx.

1. The Great Pyramid of Khufu (Cheops)
   • Largest and oldest
   • Originally 146.6 meters tall
   • Constructed with over 2 million limestone blocks
   • Celebrated as a marvel of ancient engineering
2. The Pyramid of Khafre (Chephren)
   • Slightly smaller but appears taller due to its elevated position
   • Retains some casing stones at the top
   • Associated with the Great Sphinx, believed to depict Khafre
3. The Pyramid of Menkaure
   • Smallest of the three
   • Approximately 65 meters high
   • Noted for its intricate internal chamber
   • The Great Sphinx: A colossal limestone statue with a lion’s body and a pharaoh’s head, likely representing Khafre
   • Each pyramid was linked to mortuary and valley temples via causeways

• Great Pyramid of Cheops (Khufu) - The Great Pyramid of Giza, also known as the Pyramid of Khufu or the Pyramid of Cheops, is the largest and oldest of the three pyramids on the Giza Plateau in Egypt. It is the only one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World still in existence.

  • Dynasty: 4th Dynasty of the Old Kingdom
  • Date: Constructed around 2510 BC

• Panoramic view of the Pyramids - From the Giza Plateau, the panoramic view extends across the golden desert sands beneath a bright, expansive Egyptian sky. From left to right:
  • The Pyramid of Menkaure appears first, smallest in size but sharply defined, with its base encased in reddish granite.
  • Next is the Pyramid of Khafre, seemingly taller due to its elevated position, with a noticeable cap of smooth casing stones at the top. At its base sits the iconic Great Sphinx, silently guarding the plateau with a lion’s body and a human face.
  • Furthest right stands the mighty Great Pyramid of Khufu, the largest and most imposing, with its massive blocks and slightly rougher exterior from centuries of weathering.
• Great Sphinx - The Great Sphinx of Giza is one of the most enigmatic and iconic monuments in the world, standing guard near the pyramids on the Giza Plateau.
  • Appearance: A limestone statue with the body of a lion and the head of a human, thought to represent Pharaoh Khafre
  • Length: About 73 meters (240 feet)
  • Height: Around 20 meters (66 feet)
  • Age: Estimated to have been built around 2500 BC, during the reign of Khafre
  • The Valley Temple of Khafre is one of the best-preserved ancient temples in Egypt and a significant part of Khafre’s pyramid complex on the Giza Plateau.
  • Purpose:
    • Used for mummification rituals and the purification of the pharaoh’s body before burial
