The Great Pyramid of Giza
I had a chance to visit the Great Pyramid of Giza early of the month. It was winter in Egypt and the weather is pleasant with sunshine. Lite jacket will do. We booked a Hotel just across the Pyramid complex with a magnificent roof top view of the Pyramids. The entrance fee as of Jan 2023 is 240EGP. We spent about half days exploring the Pyramid and the complex. It was a once in a lifetime of experience. #awesomepic
Honeymoon at the pyramids 🤵🏽♂️👰🏼♀️❤️
#bucketlist #Honeymoon #Pyramids
Wow wow wow what an experience.
The great pyramids of Giza, are in Giza on the outskirts of cairo. They are the most famous pyramids in Egypt,I couldn’t believe I was there. We had an awesome day, we walked for hours, but you can take a horse and cart or camel if you don’t want to walk. Don’t forget to take drinks with you if you go because there are no shops only people selling souvenirs
Great Pyramid of Giza
This place you should visit. It is so beautiful and fantastic. If you would like to see the big view of Pyramid, I recommend you to ride the camel outside of the pyramid because you can see the whole picture. This place suits with people who like to take picture and don’t fear with the camel😅. It is quite adventure. I recommend you to wear sun glasses because you might face with grain of sand from desert. #mytripvlog #egypt #pyramids

A Horus, the falcon god, was the helper of Ra and symbolized the powers of the Pharaoh during most of Egyptian history.
After avenging the death of his father, Osiris, he inherited the right to rule over the land of Egypt and went on to become one of the most important gods in the Egyptian pantheon 🗿#newyearadventure #2023travelwish #tripblazers

The Great Pyramid of Giza Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in Mar)
More eternal than time is the pyramid
I'm so excited to finally come to the pyramid! The weather in December couldn't be more suitable. Wearing a thin coat during the day to protect from the sun won't make you hot. I was worried about stepping into a pit when I read the guide before. It said that many Egyptians want tips, but actually as long as you ignore their 1💲, it's okay. The pyramid ticket includes three pyramids and the Sphinx. But the photo check-in points are a bit far apart, it's best to go by car. The point of riding a camel is at the highest point. You can see all three pyramids at the same time
Egypt is six hours ahead of China. After a 12-hour flight, the plane landed at Cairo airport. Just after landing, we rushed to the highlight of our Egypt trip today - the "Khufu Pyramid", located 16 kilometers south of Cairo. It is undoubtedly the tallest and largest building in the world. The three pyramids seen on site have stood on the Giza plateau for more than 4,500 years. They were built by three generations of Pharaoh Khufu's family in the Fourth Dynasty of ancient Egypt, and are commonly known as the "Father, Son, and Grandson Pyramids".
The Great Pyramid of Giza is 146 meters high and is made up of approximately 2.3 million stone blocks. The outer layer consists of around 115,000 blocks, each weighing an average of 2.5 tons, about the size of a small car. It took approximately 30 years to build the Great Pyramid of Giza. It is currently the top of the list of the Seven Wonders of the World and the only one that remains.
THE GIZA PYRAMIDS 🇪🇬😍😍😍
#giza #pyramids #hotel #cairo
The complex is located on the edge of the Western Desert, about 9 kilometers (5.6 miles) west of the Nile River in the city of Giza, and about 13 kilometers (8 miles) southwest of downtown Cairo. The site (along with the neighboring city of Memphis) was included in the UNESCO World Heritage List in 1979.
The Great Pyramid and the Pyramid of Khafre are among the largest pyramids built in ancient Egypt, and they were historically popular as symbols of ancient Egypt in the Western imagination. They became famous in Hellenistic times, when the Great Pyramid was included by the Greek poet Antipater as one of the Seven Wonders of the World. They are by far the oldest and only surviving ancient wonders of the world.
And the pyramids, according to one of the hypotheses, are royal tombs, each of which bears the name of the king who built it and was buried in it. Then it developed to take the form of a step pyramid by the engineer Imhotep, the minister of the pharaoh and King Djoser in the Third Dynasty. This was followed by two attempts by King Senefru, founder of the Fourth Dynasty, to build a complete hierarchical form. However, the backs of the two pyramids are not correct in shape, and they are located in Dahshur. One of them has a flattened base, and the other has a smaller shape, about half the size of the first. The engineer, Hemayuno, the architect of King Khufu, was able to achieve the ideal pyramidal shape, and he built the pyramid of Khufu in Giza on an area of 13 acres, and the pyramids of Khafre and Menkaure followed.

Luxor Temple Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in Mar)
Must visit Ancient Egyptian Temple
#2023TravelWish #vianasjourney #awesomepic
We visited Luxor temple as part of our Nile cruise trip. The Luxor temple is one of the main attractions of Luxor and is located in the middle of Luxor on the east bank of the Nile. The impressive statues and structures definitely makes this place worthwhile to visit. I would recommend visiting the temple during the evening, as the temperature cools down a bit. The lightened up statues during the evening paint an beautiful image. From the Luxor temple it is also possible to take a close look at the Avenue of Sphinxes that connects Luxor temple with the Karnak temple complex.

Luxor temple
Luxor temple is located at Luxor city. There are many people to visit this temple (field trip for children, tourists and local people). There are many students who study about drawing and they are painting the structure of the temple. Their drawings are so beautiful and creative. At the entrance, you can see many birds (I guess they are pigeons) over there,so you can take picture while birds are flying. #mytripvlog #egypt #luxor

Beautiful Karnak Temple in Egypt
It’s worth to book a trip to Egypt only to visit the Karnak temple. Its so awesome!!! It was great to be able to discover the history from this place. 👏🏻 Many pharaohs have been here. The entrance fee is less than 5 dollars and you have some restaurants near to it. Don’t forget to take a water bottle cause it can be very hot inside. You will forever remember the Temple of Karnak!

The oldest city in Egypt, a mysterious miracle thousands of years ago! Shocked to say no words
Luxor is the lowest-tune city in Egypt. It was known as the capital of the hundred gates thousands of years ago and stands proudly in the world. Those magnificent temples are undoubtedly the best witnesses of the Pharaoh civilization.
It is said that each stone statue is up to several tens of meters, and the lotus relief on the lotus relief symbolizes the unity of the upper and lower Egypt. They are like historical comic strips, hiding ancient secrets. Between the broken walls and the ruins, history has never been like smoke.
Tips: The temple is the best light before 9am, you can wear a bright red dress gown and sway between the pillars; after noon, the shadows are slowly skewed and the shadow area is over Big, but not easy to produce.
