Witness: Giza Pyramids from outside (the Great Pyramid of Khufu, the Pyramid of Khafre, the Pyramid of Menkaure):

One of the most mysterious seven wonders of the ancient world (and the only one that still exists.)

The construction of the pyramid dates from approximately the year 2560 BC, when it was built as a tomb for the pharaoh khufu, and its construction continued over a period of 20 years.

It is one of the pyramids of Giza in Egypt. it is built by King Khafre. Lower in height than his father’s pyramid (Khufu), it is built on an area of 215 square meters and has two entrances on the northern side. It still retains some of its outer covering at the top.

It is the smallest of the three main pyramids of the Giza pyramid complex. It is believed to have been built to serve as a tomb for the Egyptian pharaoh Mykarenus.

Known in Arabic as Abu Al Hol, this sculpture of a man with the haunches of a lion was dubbed the Sphinx by the ancient Greeks because it resembled their mythical winged monster that set riddles and killed anyone unable to answer them.

That was the mortuary temple of king Khafre and his family members. It is considered one of the well-preserved temples in Egypt.
