Rising 481 feet above the ground, the Great Pyramid of Khufu
was built using an estimated 3.2 million limestone blocks,
each weighing an average of 2.5 tons.
The Great Sphinx, a representation of Khafra, sits in front
of his pyramid.
There are many tales about why the nose is broken.
But even without it's nose, the Sphinx beckons to us with its
captivating eyes and enigmatic smile.
The kids will remember this forever.
