The Sphinx and Giza Pyramids

Placed in front of you are the magnificent Great Pyramid of Khufu and those of Khafre and Menkaure. Learn about incredible engineering and legends surrounding their construction. If you're feeling adventurous, you can enter one of the pyramids (optional ticket required).
A short walk brings you to the Great Sphinx, the mysterious limestone statue with a lion's body and a pharaoh's face. Take amazing photos and hear the intriguing stories behind it.
