Egypt is the country known for the Great Pyramids at Giza, which are among the most iconic and enduring symbols of ancient civilization. Constructed during the Fourth Dynasty of the Old Kingdom, these pyramids served as monumental tombs for pharaohs, particularly the Pyramid of Khufu (Cheops), which is the largest of the three and one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World. The archaeological significance and complexity of the pyramids demonstrate the advanced engineering skills and organizational capabilities of ancient Egyptians. They remain a major attraction and subject of study for historians and archaeologists alike.
