The last remaining wonder of the ancient world; for nearly 4000 years, the extraordinary shape, impeccable geometry and sheer bulk of the Giza Pyramids have invited the obvious questions:
How were we built, and why?’
Centuries of research have given us parts of the answer.
Built as massive tombs on the orders of the pharaohs, they were constructed by teams of workers tens-of-thousands strong.
Today they stand as an awe-inspiring tribute to the might, organisation and achievements of ancient Egypt.
Then proceeding to witness: Sphinx- Valley Temple
Known in Arabic as Abu Al Hol (Father of Terror), 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 who set riddles and killed anyone unable to answer them.
A geological survey has shown that it was most likely carved from the bedrock at the bottom of the causeway during Khafre’s reign, so it probably portrays his features.
The National Museum of Egyptian Civilization.
The National Museum of Egyptian Civilization is the first museum of its kind in Egypt and the Arab world. It houses large exhibitions in the central square. The museum also includes the Royal Mummies Room (additional ticket), which is the jewel of the museum.
It was transferred from the Egyptian Museum in Tahrir and was received in a majestic procession to discover the ancient Egyptian civilization.
