The Great Pyramid of Giza
The enormous pyramid of Khufu, which is recognized for being the last surviving monument of the ancient world’s seven wonders, is located amidst the skies of heaven. It is more than 4500 years old, making it the world’s oldest enigma due to the fringe hypotheses surrounding its origin and its intricate interior in comparison to its size. It was built in 2580 BC over 20 years using 2,300,000 pieces of 2.5-ton limestone and a workforce of 100,000 free skilled workers, resulting in a height of 147 meters (481 feet), making it the world’s tallest building for 3800 years until it was constructed the Lincoln Cathedral in England in 1311.
The Great Sphinx of Giza
The great sphinx is one of the most enigmatic artifacts in the world; it is shaped like a legendary monster known as the sphinx, which has the body of a lion and the head of a man thought to be King Khafre, and it represents power and knowledge. It’s called Abu al-Hawl, which means “The Father of Terror” in Arabic. The sphinx is 73 meters (240 feet) tall and 19 meters (66 feet) wide and was carved out of a single limestone boulder.
The Valley Temple
The Valley Temple, which was built during Egypt’s ancient reign (2686-2134 BC) inside the complex, is where the mummification process takes place.

Temple of Hatshepsut
The Hatshepsut Temple is known as Luxor’s most beautiful structure; it was given the name Djoser-Djeseru (Holy of Holies) and displays the strength and will of Queen Hatshepsut, one of ancient Egypt’s most successful rulers. The temple was conceived in 1479 BC and built for 15 years. The temple’s architecture is based on the new kingdom’s Classical Architecture philosophy, and the temple houses some of Egypt’s most stunning sculptures, decorations, and antiques.
Memnon’s Colossi

They are two gigantic slabs of quartzite sandstone, each weighing 720 tonnes and shaped like Pharaoh Amenhotep III. They stand at a height of 18 m (60 ft) and have the form of Pharaoh Amenhotep III (1386-1350). A huge earthquake in 27 BC wrecked the colossi, but they were reconstructed around 199 AD.

It was called “Tekhenu,” which means “to pierce the sky,” and it stood 42 meters tall and weighed 1200 tonnes, demonstrating how obelisks were built from the ground up and the ancient Egyptian building style.
