About Guiza

Guiza, en las afueras de El Cairo, alberga la Gran Pirámide, la Esfinge y una meseta desértica que atrae a viajeros desde hace milenios.

La meseta alberga tres grandes pirámides, construidas para los faraones Keops, Kefrén y Micerinos, junto con pirámides menores de reinas y hileras de tumbas de nobles. La Gran Pirámide de Keops es la última de las Siete Maravillas del Mundo Antiguo que sigue en pie, y la Gran Esfinge vigila más abajo, tallada en la roca junto al templo del valle de Kefrén.
