Giza Pyramids Complex:

Marvel at one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World, where the pyramids of Khufu, Khafre, and Menkaure dominate the desert skyline. Built between 2600 and 2510 BC, these colossal tombs reflect extraordinary ancient engineering. The complex also features smaller pyramids, temples, the Great Sphinx, and the Valley Temple.

The Great Pyramid of Khufu:

Standing originally at 146.6 meters, the Great Pyramid of Khufu is the largest and most famous of Giza’s pyramids. Built from over 2.3 million limestone blocks, it remained the tallest man-made structure on Earth for nearly 3,800 years. This royal tomb of Pharaoh Khufu continues to fascinate visitors with its precision and mystery.

The Great Sphinx:

Guarding the Giza Plateau for more than 4,500 years, the Great Sphinx combines the body of a lion with the head of a pharaoh. Believed to represent Pharaoh Khafre, the monument symbolizes strength, wisdom, and protection. Despite erosion and damage over millennia, the Sphinx remains one of Egypt’s most iconic treasures.

The Valley Temple:

Located beside the Sphinx, the Valley Temple served as a funerary temple for Pharaoh Khafre. Built of massive limestone and granite blocks, it was used for mummification and purification rituals. Its remarkable preservation offers rare insights into Old Kingdom mortuary practices.
