Your first destination is one of the most iconic wonders of the ancient world – the legendary Giza Plateau. This vast archaeological site was built over 4,500 years ago as a royal burial ground for the pharaohs of the 4th Dynasty.
The Great Pyramid of Khufu
Towering at 138.5 meters, this architectural marvel was constructed around 2570 BC and remains the only surviving Wonder of the Ancient World. It’s perfectly aligned with the cardinal points of the compass and weighs a staggering 6 million tons. Standing before it is a truly humbling experience.
The Great Sphinx
Guarding the pyramids lies the mysterious Sphinx, a colossal limestone statue with the body of a lion and the face of Pharaoh Khafre. At 20 meters tall and 73 meters long, it's a symbol of strength, wisdom, and divine protection.
The Valley Temple
Just a short walk away is the Valley Temple of Khafre, a fascinating funerary site once used for mummification rituals. Built from limestone, this sacred space also held some of the most remarkable statues of Pharaoh Khafre ever found.
After soaking in the magic of Giza, you’ll stop for a delicious lunch at a well-rated local restaurant. It’s the perfect chance to relax, refresh, and savor authentic Egyptian flavors.
Next, step into the future of Egyptology with a visit to the Grand Egyptian Museum – a spectacular new landmark near the pyramids. With over 100,000 artifacts on display, this museum tells the story of ancient Egypt like never before.
