Perched on the Giza Plateau, the Pyramid of Khafre is the second tallest but appears the grandest thanks to a remaining limestone casing near its apex. Nearby, the smaller Pyramid of Menkaure once boasted a granite exterior, adding a distinct contrast in the trio that includes the Great Pyramid. Dating back over four millennia, these tombs highlight the advanced engineering of Egypt’s Old Kingdom. You can venture inside, though tunnels can be tight. Local guides share captivating stories of pharaohs, construction methods, and burial rituals. Arrive early or stay late for fewer crowds, cooler temperatures, and magical desert light.
