During the world’s history the Giza
Pyramids have stimulated the people imagination who called them
‘The Joseph's granary’ or ‘The Pharaohs` Mountains. Today, the
Giza Pyramids are Egypt's main touristic attraction, bringing
thousands of tourists every year. A lot of people who saw the
pyramids on tv or in pictures want to come to Egypt to see them
right in front of their eyes. It is an incredible feeling to
have in front of you more than 4.500 years of history. The
tourists are so excited about seeing this Egypt wonders that you
can often see the tourists climbing the immense steps of the
pyramids. They are all fascinated by the three pyramids that
were built in the honor of the dead pharaohs, one next to the
other and placed in chronological order and also after their
size, from Cheops to Menkaurie. The three monolith constructions
are monuments that are in the pictures of so many people from
all around the world! The pyramid of Chephren waits for its
visitors with stairs situated at the entrance on a tight
corridor and getting down about 200 meters. The air inside is
rare and with humidity. At the end of the stairs is a large hall
which represented the funerary complex that includes the
mortuary temple in which the pharaoh was buried. The people are
free to imagine how the pyramids were made creating theories
that varies from impossible to almost impossible: astronomical
observations, veneration places, geometrical structures made by
a very old civilization and even theories about the pyramids
being built by extraterrestrials. But no matter the theory you
believe in, under the hot sun of Egypt, arising from the middle
of the hot sands, the Great Pyramids with its sisters waits for
you to discover them! |
