No trip to Egypt is complete without standing in awe before the legendary Pyramids of Giza – one of the most iconic wonders of the ancient world and a true testament to human ingenuity and ambition.
📍 Where Are the Pyramids?
Located just outside Cairo, the capital of Egypt, the Giza Plateau is home to the three great pyramids: Khufu (the Great Pyramid), Khafre, and Menkaure. These monumental structures have stood the test of time for over 4,500 years, still towering over the desert sands with majestic grace.

Built as royal tombs for pharaohs of the Old Kingdom, the pyramids were constructed using millions of limestone blocks – some weighing as much as 15 tons. The precision and planning behind these ancient feats continue to fascinate historians, engineers, and travelers from all over the world.
