It is the oldest of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World, and the only one to remain largely intact. The original entrance to the Great Pyramid is on the north, 17 meters (56 ft.) vertically above ground level and 7.29 meters (23.9 ft.) east of the centerline of the pyramid. From this original entrance, there is a Descending Passage 0.96 meters (3.1 ft.) high and 1.04 meters (3.4 ft.) wide, which goes down at an angle of 26° 31'23" through the masonry of the pyramid and then into the bedrock beneath it. After 105.23 meters (345.2 ft.), the passage becomes level and continues for an additional 8.84 meters (29.0 ft.) to the lower Chamber, which appears not to have been finished. There is a continuation of the horizontal passage in the south wall of the lower chamber; there is also a pit dug in the floor of the chamber.

   15 min

7. Dahshur pyramids were an extremely important learning experience for the Egyptians. It provided them with the knowledge and know-how to transition from steep-sided pyramids to smooth-sided pyramids. Ultimately their breadth of experience would allow them to build the Great Pyramid of Giza; the last of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World still standing to this date.

About Cairo

Il Cairo, vasta capitale egiziana sul Nilo, dove le piramidi di Giza incontrano moschee medievali, bazar affollati e tesori dei faraoni.

Al margine occidentale della città, le piramidi di Giza e la Grande Sfinge si innalzano dall'altopiano desertico, con la piramide a gradoni di Saqqara e le rovine di Menfi più a sud. I grandi musei del Cairo, il Museo Egizio in piazza Tahrir e il vasto Grande Museo Egizio accanto all'altopiano, custodiscono reperti che coprono migliaia di anni.

Top-ranked sights in Cairo: Egyptian Museum (Museum of Egyptian Antiquities), Saqqara (Sakkara), Khan El-Khalili.
