Description

The pyramids of Egypt are some of the most iconic and well-known structures in the world. They have fascinated people for thousands of years. The ancient Egyptians built pyramids as tombs for the pharaohs and their consorts. They were also used for their sacred relics and offerings. These structures were meant to ensure the pharaoh's journey to the afterlife and were considered to be houses for the gods.

The pyramids of Egypt were constructed over a period of several thousand years, from around 2630 BC to 1640 BC. The Great Pyramid of Giza, is the largest and most famous of all the pyramids. It was built for the pharaoh Khufu and is considered one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World. The pyramid is estimated to have taken around 20 years to build, with a workforce of around 100,000 men.

Today, the pyramids of Egypt are popular tourist destinations, attracting millions of visitors every year.
