The pyramid of Khufu (Cheops) is the northernmost and largest of the 3. It was considered as 1 of the 7 wonders of the world, and is the only 1 to have survived.
Did you know that the Great Pyramid contains about 6.25 million tons of stone and that the individual blocks weigh between 2 and 15 tons? That really sounds impressive.
Also, if you want to go inside, be sure to come early, because only 150 people have that pleasure daily. Unfortunately, we weren't among them. Perhaps next time...
Address: Giza
Directions: Northeast of Khephren's pyramid.
