Pyramids of Giza

The pyramids are giant stone triangles glowing in the desert sun, built over 4,500 years ago when mammoths still roamed the Earth! These incredible structures were built as eternal homes for Egyptian pharaohs, the powerful kings who ruled ancient Egypt. The Great Pyramid was the tallest building in the world for almost 4,000 years - imagine that! Building a pyramid was like solving the world's biggest puzzle. Workers had to cut, move, and perfectly place over 2 million stone blocks, each weighing as much as a car! They used ramps, ropes, and incredible teamwork to stack these massive stones higher than a 40-story building. The pyramids were built so precisely that they align perfectly with certain stars in the sky. Inside the pyramids, archaeologists have discovered amazing treasures, secret passages, and rooms filled with everything a pharaoh might need in the afterlife - including golden jewelry, furniture, and even board games! Standing next to a pyramid makes you feel tiny and fills you with wonder about how ancient people created something so magnificent that it still amazes us today.
