Giza Pyramids
The Pyramids of Giza are the only one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World still preserved today, and therefore one of the most famous buildings in the world. The three major pyramids of Giza include the Pyramid of Khufu, the Pyramid of Khafre, and the Pyramid of Mycrinus.
Queen Pyramids
Some other smaller secondary pyramids, where for example, the women of the pharaohs were buried, as well as labor villages, temples, and tombs.
Great Sphinx statue in Giza
The Great Sphinx of Giza is a giant Egyptian statue. It was carved from the limestone of the Giza plateau and represented a recumbent lion with a human head and the so-called veil of a name. Initially, the Sphinx was painted red ocher and had a chin beard, but this fell into antiquity.
Valley Temple

Saqqara pyramid
We will move to Saqqara, a pyramidal complex that, like Giza, is part of the necropolis of Memphis. We will see one of the first pyramids built, which served as a model for all those made later.
The step pyramid of Djoser has a rectangular base and is about 60 meters high; and was part of a ceremonial complex built around 2650 BC for the pharaoh Djoser by Imhotep, the most famous Egyptian architect.

Red Pyramid
The Red Pyramid, the construction of which represents a detailed development indicating the transition from a stepped pyramid, such as the pyramid of Djoser at Saqqara, to the pyramid with ecclesiastical lines. Red pyramid, height 105 m. The entrance is made of red granite.
