96 pyramids have been found in Egypt, the largest of which are the three pyramids located in Giza, a suburb of Cairo. The pyramids are tombs built by the kings of ancient Egypt for themselves. The Great Pyramid is the tomb of Khufu, the second king of the fourth dynasty. It was built around 2690 BC and its original height was 146.5 meters. Due to years of weathering, its top has been stripped of10m, and now its height is136.5m.. Each side of the base is more than 230 meters long, the slope of the triangular surface is 5 1 degree, and the bottom area of the tower is 52,900 square meters. The tower consists of 2.3 million stones, each weighing an average of 2.5 tons. It is said that it took 654.38 million people 20 years to build it. The passage inside the pyramid is open to the outside world. The channel is exquisitely designed and calculated, which is amazing.
The second pyramid is the tomb of King Ha Fula, the son of Khufu. It was built in 2650 BC, 3 meters lower than the former, but the architectural form is more perfect and spectacular. There are temples and other ancillary buildings and the famous Sphinx in front of the tower.
The Sphinx refers to Ha Fula. The main body of the Sphinx is a lion, 22 meters high and 57 meters long. One ear of the statue is 2 meters high. Except for the lion's claws, the whole statue is carved from natural rocks. Due to the loose stone, the whole statue has been severely weathered after more than 4000 years. In addition, the face was severely damaged. Some people say that Ma Mruck used it as a target for practice shooting, while others say that it was a trace left by the shelling when Napoleon invaded Egypt in the18th century.
The third pyramid belongs to King Koala, the grandson of Khufu, and was built around 2600 BC. At that time, it was the decline of the fourth dynasty, and pyramid architecture began to decline. The height of the Menkoala pyramid suddenly dropped to 66 meters, and the internal structure was chaotic.
