About Gizeh

Gizeh, aux portes du Caire, abrite la Grande Pyramide, le Sphinx et un plateau désertique qui attire les voyageurs depuis des millénaires.

Le plateau compte trois grandes pyramides, bâties pour les pharaons Khéops, Khéphren et Mykérinos, ainsi que de plus petites pyramides de reines et des rangées de tombeaux de nobles. La Grande Pyramide de Khéops est la dernière des Sept Merveilles du monde antique encore debout, et le Grand Sphinx veille en contrebas, taillé dans le roc à côté du temple de la vallée de Khéphren.
