Hey guys,
Last but not least I will take you to the Pyramids of Cairo.
This trip was so incredible. I've heard a lot about the Pyramids, but being there is totally different.
We started very early again so we could take pictures without thousands of Tourists.
We had to take a plane from Sharm El Sheikh to Cairo which took about an hour.
It was definitely worth it!
The Pyramids
The Pyramids of Giza were built between 2620 and 2500 BC. The largest and most famous of them is the Cheops Pyramid. It is now almost 139 meters high. The Chephren Pyramid is only slightly smaller than the Cheops Pyramid at 136.4 meters. A third Pyramid is the Mykerinos Pyramid, which today has a height of 61 meters. Nearby is the tomb of Queen Chentkaus. It is considered as an unofficial fourth Pyramid and, by its peculiar construction, looks like an unfinished Pyramid.
The Sphinx
Right in front of the Pyramids of Giza is the famous Sphinx. It is over 4,000 years old and unfortunately today you cannot say exactly what its original function was. It is thought to guard the Pyramids of Giza.
