4. The Great Pyramid of Giza, also known as the Great Pyramid or the Great Pyramid of Khufu, stands as an ancient Egyptian marvel and is the largest among the trio of Giza Pyramids. Constructed to honor Khufu, the second ruler of Egypt's 4th dynasty, its completion occurred around 2560 BCE. Today, the Great Pyramid is the sole survivor of the Seven Wonders of the World. Its wonder lies not only in its vastness but also in the astonishing precision of its construction. While its purpose is presumed to be the burial site of Khufu, only an empty sarcophagus resides within. Originally towering at about 482 feet (147 meters) and boasting four sides measuring around 755 feet (230 meters) each, the pyramid's stepped sides were once adorned with polished limestone casing stones. These stones, weighing a remarkable 15 tons each and meticulously interlocked, would have lent a radiant sheen to the structure under the sun.

La côte est bordée de baies d'hôtels comme Naama Bay, le centre animé avec sa promenade de restaurants et de bars, et les plus calmes Sharks Bay et Nabq. Le vrai trésor se trouve sous l'eau : les récifs coralliens arrivent jusqu'au rivage, grouillant de poissons colorés, de tortues et de raies.
