After enjoying your Breakfast in your hotel in Cairo.
Witness: Giza Pyramids (the Great Pyramid of Khufu, the Pyramid of Khafre, the Pyramid of Menkaure):
One of the most mysterious seven wonders of the ancient world (and the only one that still exists.)
-Pyramid of Khufu:
The construction of the pyramid dates from approximately the year 2560 BC, when it was built as a tomb for the pharaoh khufu, and its construction continued over a period of 20 years.
– Pyramid of Khafre
It is one of the pyramids of Giza in Egypt. it is built by King Khafre. Lower in height than his father’s pyramid (Khufu), it is built on an area of 215 square meters and has two entrances on the northern side. It still retains some of its outer covering at the top.
-Pyramid of Menkaure
It is the smallest of the three main pyramids of the giza pyramid complex located on the Giza plateau in the southwestern suburbs of cairo, egypt. It is believed to have been built to serve as a tomb for the Egyptian pharaoh Mykarenus.
Then proceeding to witness: Sphinx
Known in Arabic as Abu Al Hol (Father of Terror), this sculpture of a man with the haunches of a lion was dubbed the Sphinx by the ancient Greeks because it resembled their mythical winged monster that set riddles and killed anyone unable to answer them.
Then we will move to the valley temple of king Khafre
That was the mortuary temple of king Khafre and his family members. It is considered one of the wellpreserved temples in Egypt.
Then proceeding to witness: Saqqara (Step Pyramid)
Covering a 7km stretch of the Western Desert, Saqqara, the huge cemetery of ancient Memphis, was an active burial ground for more than 3500 years and is Egypt’s largest archaeological site. The necropolis is situated high above the Nile Valley’s cultivation area, and is the final resting place for deceased pharaohs and their families, administrators, generals and sacred animals. The name Saqqara is most likely derived from Sokar, the Memphite god of the dead.
