The Greatest Pyramids Of Egypt
Jan 4, 2023 09:34:55 #
The three large pyramids of Giza have captured mankind's fascination for years. The immense size and fine stone work are amazing. These photos come from a somewhat hazy, foggy morning.
1. Khufu "the great pyramid" is the largest, 481 ft tall by 755 ft on each side. It is the only one of the "original seven ancient wonders of the world" that still exists today. It is the largest single stone structure in the word and dates to ≈2560 BC or 4582 years old.
2. Khafre, only slightly smaller, is the second largest at 471 ft tall by 707 ft on each side.
3. Maukauri is much smaller at 218 ft tall by 356 ft on each side.
Please enjoy the downloads.

Excellent photos - Every time I see them I wonder how primitive man could've built them, or did he have 'outside' help

Although your facts are roughly correct your photo is not. The first shows Khafre's, the 2nd largest with some of the capping still on it. I climbed inside Khufu's to the Tomb room first trip, to the Khafre tomb room 2nd trip. What an experience! Nice photos.
BTW, Khafres (capped one) looks taller in your photos because it sits up on a hill, the larger Khufu is in a depression.
