Wow! Finally, I stood before the pyramids!
There were 101 existing pyramids in Egypt.
Where we visited was the three most famous pyramids and the famous Sphinx stood here too. Giza Pyramids was the general term for a group, rather than a separate pyramid.
In the Giza Pyramids, three largest and best-preserved pyramids were Khufu, Khafre and Menkaura. They were built between 2600 BC to 2500 BC.
The largest was the Pyramid of Khufu, 146-meter-high (almost a skyscraper now!).
Khafre Pyramid, 144 meters high.
Menkaura pyramid, 67 meters high.
In our sight, the three pyramids were placed at random, but in fact they were arranged in accordance with the waist of the galaxy Orion.
The bottom side of the Pyramid of Khufu almost faced to north, south, East, West and the error was less than 1 degree. The ancient Egyptians were really smart!
In a close look, every stone of the Pyramid was as big as cars! The height was up to my neck! For example, the Pyramid of Khufu was built by 2,300,000 stones. Weighs 2.5 tons - 15 tons. It was really hard to imagine how the ancient Egyptians built it.
I was so excited before the Pyramid and my friends said I performed like a fool...fool...fool...  When I saw the Sphinx myself, I found it was not quite the same as I saw it on the books or TV before.
In fact, Sphinx was very big and the body was so long!
Finally, we went to the fragrance shop. Egypt was very famous of the flavor.
The flavor bottles were cute. Uhh...... a little tired...... Just pause here, I will share more experience of my trip in Egypt the next time. |
