Egypt
Giza Pyramids
The oldest and only surviving Ancient Wonder, this UNESCO World Heritage Site is an undeniably awe-inspiring testament to the prowess of Ancient Egypt.
About
The Pyramids of Giza were built by three generations of pharaohs during the 26th century BC as tombs with enough room to store everything they would need in the afterlife - they were expecting to become gods after-all. Archaeologists found that the pharaohs even had full-sized boats buried alongside the pyramids. The Great Pyramid, the oldest and largest of the three, has been captivating the imagination of visitors since the days of ancient Greece, when it was described as one of the Seven Wonders of the World. While the pyramids (and Great Sphinx) get all the attention, they are just the largest monuments of a vast necropolis that is filled with smaller tombs and temples. When visiting, you have a variety of ticket options, ranging from viewing the pyramids and sphinx from the exterior, to access to various individual pyramids and tombs. There’s even a museum housing one of the boats found here - a 4500 year old cedar wood vessel that took 14 years to restore and reconstruct. If you do decide to go into one of the pyramids be aware that they’re hot, claustrophobic, and often smell. As they’ve been stripped clean by looters, most visitors agree that going into just one is more than enough.
