About Pyramids of Giza
Average of
4.9 for all activities in Pyramids of Giza

The Pyramids of Giza, located on the outskirts of Cairo, are one of the most iconic and enduring symbols of ancient Egypt. This UNESCO World Heritage site is home to three main pyramids: the Great Pyramid of Khufu, the Pyramid of Khafre, and the Pyramid of Menkaure. The Great Pyramid, built around 2580–2560 BC, is the largest and most famous, originally standing at 146.6 meters tall. These monumental structures were constructed as tombs for the pharaohs and are a testament to the architectural prowess of the ancient Egyptians. Visitors can marvel at the precision of the stonework and the sheer scale of these ancient wonders, which have stood the test of time for over 4,500 years. The site also features the enigmatic Sphinx, a limestone statue with the body of a lion and the head of a pharaoh, which adds to the mystique of the area. Exploring the pyramids offers a glimpse into the rich history and culture of ancient Egypt, with numerous artifacts and hieroglyphs that tell stories of the past. Guided tours are available, providing insights into the construction techniques and the significance of these structures. A visit to the Pyramids of Giza is not just a journey through history; it is an experience that ignites the imagination and inspires awe.
