Last week I had a fantastic experience I wish every body can do;visiting the Pyramids Zone in Egypt..
A maizing trip.. You cant imagine how charming to stand in front of one of the Seven Wonders of the World , The Pyramids of Giza and the Great Sphinx that large lion-human-faced statue which is one of the most famous monuments in the whole world.
i wont talk so much, i will let the photos tell you what words fail to describe....
but first let me tell you some information about the pyramids:
The Egyptian pyramids are ancient pyramid-shaped masonry structures located in Egypt.There are 138 pyramids discovered in Egypt as of 2008. Most were built as tombs for the country's Pharaohs ( the ancient Egyptians ) and their consorts during the Old and Middle Kingdom periods. The earliest known Egyptian pyramids are found at Saqqara ( an area near Cairo, the capital of Egypt ), northwest of Memphis( the old name of Cairo ). The earliest among these is the Pyramid of Djoser (constructed 2630 BCE–2611 BCE) which was built during the third dynasty. This pyramid and its surrounding complex were designed by the architect Imhotep, and are generally considered to be the world's oldest monumental structures constructed of dressed masonry.The most famous Egyptian pyramids are those found at Giza, on the outskirts of Cairo. Several of the Giza pyramids are counted among the largest structures ever built.The Pyramid of Khufu at Giza is the largest Egyptian pyramid. It is the only one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World still in existence.
