The Great Pyramid

The magical Giza Pyramid is the crown jewel of Egypt, which was established for Pharaoh Khufu (2609 BC - 2584 BC) by his brilliant vizier Henmiunu to become his final resting place that was made in 2570 BC and pierced the skies to become the tallest creation on earth, which reached 138.5 meters (454.4 ft).

Pyramid of Khafre

The Pyramid of Khafre is a magnificent monument that continues to reveal valuable insights into the history, engineering, and sacred knowledge of ancient Egyptian pyramid building. Constructed for King Khafre of the 4th Dynasty, who ruled around 2558–2532 BC, it was built during the 26th century BC as part of the royal funerary landscape of the Giza Plateau. Although it is slightly smaller than the Great Pyramid of Khufu, the pyramid appears higher because it stands on elevated ground and still preserves traces of its original white limestone casing near the summit, offering a powerful glimpse of its ancient glory.

The Great Sphinx

The Sphinx was built during the reign of Pharaoh Khafre (2558–2532 BC), and it is believed that the sphinx was built to link the pharaoh with the Sun god.

Dream Steele of Thutmose IV (1401–1391 BC) was created and put in 1401 BC to narrate the mythical tale and influence of this great figure.

Pyramid of Menkaure

The Pyramid of Menkaure is the youngest and smallest of the three main pyramids of the Giza Plateau, built for King Menkaure of the 4th Dynasty, who ruled around 2532–2503 BC. Constructed during the 26th century BC, this elegant monument is admired for its refined proportions and the surviving remains of its original granite casing along the lower levels.
