If you ask a world traveler which famous monuments made the strongest impression on him, he will probably reply, "the pyramids of Giza." The reasons differ; one visitor may admire their colossal scale, another, their architectural perfection, a third, their antiquity, a fourth, their romantic situation, a fifth, their history. On the plateau of Giza one can see the famous Great pyramid of Cheops (2500 B.C.), the only remaining wonder of the Seven Wonders of the ancient world, along with the Pyramids of Chephren and Mycerinus. Down the plateau lies the Great Sphinx!! The Egyptian Museum in Cairo houses the biggest collection of ancient Egyptian monuments (more than 120,000 objects), the famous Royal Mummies Room, and the treasures of king Tutankamun |
