The famous pyramids of Giza are one of the Seven Wonders of the World and a place of attraction for travelers from all over the world. They are located near the city of Cairo on the Giza plateau in the Libyan desert. It is believed that the buildings appeared in ancient Egypt around the XXVI-XXIII century BC and their main purpose was the role of a tomb for the pharaohs. At the same time the most famous Pyramid of Cheops (Khufu) is the only truly preserved monument of the seven wonders of the world. And of course the entire complex of the great pyramids of Giza is of the most popular attractions in Egypt.
Pyramids of Giza: highlights and best spots

Three famous pyramids named after the pharaohs who ordered their construction are situated in the ancient Necropolis of Giza. The most famous and highest is the pyramid of Pharaoh Khufu also known as the pyramid of Cheops. It is located on the Giza Necropolis plateau where the ancient Sphinx with the head of a man and the body of a lion reclines.
The second highest is the pyramid of Khafra (Khafren). It mistakenly seems to be the highest because of its location on a separate plateau located above the level of the other pyramids. The smallest and therefore perhaps the best preserved to date is the pyramid of Mikerin (Menkauru).
In addition to the three great pyramids several smaller pyramids can also be seen on the Giza plateau. It is believed that there were a number of queens, nobles of the Fourth Dynasty of ancient Egypt and famous statesmen were buried.

In addition to exploring the three most iconic Egyptian pyramids on the Giza plateau with a visit to the tombs and inner tunnels tourists are also invited to take beautiful photos from a panoramic point which offers a fantastic view of six of the nine pyramids located in the valley.
Also travelers do not miss the opportunity to take a photo with a Sphinx and ride a camel through the desert sands. The guides also recommend visiting the museum of the "Solar boat" where the Khufu ship (built for the pharaoh of ancient Egypt, Khufu) is stored and which is considered one of the oldest and best preserved floating vehicles of antiquity. Legend has it that on this boat the resurrected Pharaoh had to sail with the sun god Ra across the sky.
If you manage to get to the pyramids at sunset you can watch a light and sound performance. Every day after sunset the Sphinx and the pyramids of Egypt are illuminated with all the colors of the rainbow and with the help of a video projector the history of the creation of the complex is broadcast on them.
Best time to visit the Giza pyramid complex.
The winter months are great for exploring the Necropolis of Giza as there is no sweltering heat in Egypt yet. However it is better to move the visit to the great pyramids in winter to lunch since in the morning they are often covered with a foggy haze significantly complicating the review.
From March to November the risks of encountering morning fog are minimal but closer to midday the air begins to warm up strongly significantly complicating the inspection of the pyramids.
