Built with over 2 million limestone blocks, this massive pyramid showcases the advanced engineering and precision that still amazes historians today.

Next, you’ll visit the Pyramid of Khafre, the second-largest of the three. Though slightly smaller than Khufu’s pyramid, it appears taller due to its elevated position on the plateau.

After the pyramids, you’ll visit the Great Sphinx, an iconic symbol of ancient Egypt. Carved from a single block of limestone, the Sphinx has the body of a lion and the head of Pharaoh Khafre.
