The Great Pyramid of Giza is one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World. Located near Cairo, Egypt, it was built around 2580–2560 BC as a tomb for the Pharaoh Khufu (also known as Cheops). This remarkable structure is the largest of the three pyramids on the Giza plateau and was originally 146.6 meters tall, though it is now slightly shorter due to the loss of the outer casing stones. The Great Pyramid demonstrates ancient Egyptians' advanced engineering and architectural skills and remains a testament to their enduring legacy.
