The Great Pyramid of Giza is the oldest and largest of the three pyramids. Built during the reign of Pharaoh Khufu, also known as Khufu, it is the last of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World still in existence. Founded in 2580 BC, the Cheops pyramid is a living phenomena which used over 2,000,000 limestone blocks, each weighs 2.5 tons, it took 20 years to complete and more than 100,000 skilled workers had contributed to its construction. With a towering height of 147 m (481 ft), it held the title of the world's tallest structure for an astounding 3800 years.

The Great Sphinx, known as the guardian angel from a mystical dimension called "Hor-em-Akhet," holds the symbolic name "Horus of the horizon." With dimensions of 73 m (240 ft) in height and 19 m (66 ft) in width, this awe-inspiring monument takes the form of a mythical creature called the Sphinx. Combining a lion's body with a man's head, it is believed to represent the mighty King Khafre, emphasizing his unparalleled power and wisdom.

Constructed during the Old Kingdom (2686-2134 BC), the Valley Temple serves as a time capsule, preserving the ancient mummification process. This archaeological site offers invaluable insights into the rituals and practices surrounding death in ancient Egypt, making it a treasure trove of knowledge. The well-preserved nature of the valley provides priceless information about the mummification process and mortuary customs of the time.
