The Pyramids of Giza, visible from outside their site, are awe-inspiring monuments symbolizing ancient Egypt’s grandeur. Built over 4,500 years ago, they served as royal tombs for pharaohs of the Old Kingdom. The Great Pyramid of Khufu, the largest, was once the tallest structure on Earth and is a masterpiece of engineering with over 2.3 million limestone blocks. The smaller Pyramids of Khafre and Menkaure stand alongside it, with Khafre’s pyramid appearing taller due to its elevated position. Nearby, the Great Sphinx, a colossal limestone statue with a lion’s body and a pharaoh’s head, guards the complex.
