The Pyramids of Giza, located on the Giza Plateau near Cairo, Egypt, are one of the world's oldest wonders! Built around 2630 BCE, the Great Pyramid of Khufu (standing at 147 meters tall) held the title of the world's tallest structure for over 4,000 years—a true architectural marvel 🏛️. The sight of the Pyramid of Khafre, the Pyramid of Menkaure, and the guardian Sphinx together is absolutely breathtaking! 🦁 Recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, the Pyramids attract millions of visitors annually 🌍. You can explore the interior of the Great Pyramid of Khufu (be cautious of the narrow passageways ⚠️). Tickets cost 500 EGP (approximately $15). Taking a photo in front of the Sphinx is a must 📸!
