4About it
The Pyramids of Giza stand at the edge of the desert near Cairo, in Egypt. They were built about 4,500 years ago as tombs for three kings, or pharaohs: Khufu, Khafre and Menkaure. The Great Pyramid of Khufu was first about 146 meters (481 feet) tall, and for almost 4,000 years it was the tallest building in the world. It is the only one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World still standing.
Tap it for a playful visitor: a tiny flying saucer glides in and switches on its beam, sand streams up into the shape of a camel, which floats up into the saucer, and the saucer wobbles happily and zips away.
