Cairo. You can visit the great pyramid known as Cheops Pyramid, the only one of
the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World that is still standing, with Pyramids
and Old Cairo Tours from Alexandria Port. The Great Pyramid, which originally
stood at a height of 481 feet, was the biggest structure ever built in Egypt.
It was built by King Khufu during the Fourth Dynasty of the Old Kingdom of
ancient Egypt (around 2550 BCE).
There are over 2.3
million stone blocks in the great pyramid. Herodotus claimed that more than
100,000 people were employed in the construction of this pyramid, which took
about thirty years to complete. However, another account claims that farmers
who were otherwise engaged in farming instead focused their efforts on building
this pyramid as a result of the Nile River flooding. During the Old Kingdom
Period of Ancient Egypt, around 2540 BC, the Chephren Pyramid, which is thought
to be the second largest pyramid at Giza and in Egypt, was constructed for
Khafre, the third pharaoh of the 4th Dynasty. Khufu was the father of Khafre,
who was also known in history by the Greek name Chephren.
