The Great Pyramid of Giza

 The Great Pyramid of Giza, the largest of the three pyramids on the Giza Plateau, served as a tomb for Pharaoh Khufu, who ruled during the Fourth Dynasty of the Old Kingdom. It was originally constructed as a monumental burial site to ensure Khufu's safe passage to the afterlife. Originally standing at 481 feet, the Great Pyramid was the tallest man-made structure in the world for over 3,800 years. The Great Pyramid remains one of the most iconic symbols of Egypt and the last of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World still in existence.
