Egypt is home to over 118 pyramids that have continued to entice travelers, mathematicians and archaeologists seeking to understand these human-made structures. Constructed more than 4,500 years ago, the Great Pyramid of Giza is the last-standing ancient wonder of the world, and a symbol of Egypt’s rich culture. The structure is part of a group of three pyramids — Khufu, Khafre and Menkaure –– with each one serving as a royal tomb named after three pharaohs. While all three Pyramids of Giza continue to marvel the world, Khufu, more commonly known as the Great Pyramid, has received the most attention due to its massive size, built at 481 feet tall.
