The Egyptian pyramids are ancient pyramid shaped masonry structures located in Egypt. There are 138 pyramids discovered in Egypt as of 2008. Most were built as tombs for the country's Pharaohs and their consorts during the Old and Middle Kingdom periods.
The pyramids of Giza are perhaps the only true rival to the Great Sphinx when one thinks of ancient Egypt and its architecture. With the largest Pyramid covering just over nine acres no one can imagine the true size and brilliance of them, until stood beneath one of them, the peak towering for an eternity above you. The Pyramids stand as a marvellous reminder of the skill executed in their creation by the ancient Egyptians and are truly fabulous to see.
