The oldest pyramid in Giza and certainly the most impressive one. The last of Seven Wonders of the Ancient World that has remained.

This stupendous 45 m long sandstone statue seems to watch over the pyramids of Giza. The origin of the monument is entangled with mystery.

Museum displaying tremendous collections of ancient Egyptian antiquities including mummies. Definitely a must see.

A pyramid of unusual shape marking the development of the ideal form. Surrounded by complementary structures.

Remains of what once was a capital of the Old Kingdom and a chief cult city of Ptah. A must see. Great Temple of Ptah is the main highlight.

Seemingly higher than Khufu pyramid, easily recognisable by its limestone cap. The burial chambers are open to public.

The smallest pyramid in Giza. There are traces of dismantling attempts on the north side that the pyramid easily endured.

This museum holds an extensive collection of Egyptian Christian artefacts with rich variety of objects on display.

Used to serve as a burial site for the nearby Memphis. Worth visiting not only for the pyramids, but also for the tombs and ruins scattered around.

The third largest Egyptian pyramid got its name after the reddish stone it's made of. The interiors are open to public.
