Where are the pyramids?

Travel Tips

The ones that you most likely are referring to are located in Egypt in a place called Giza. This is also where you will find the Sphinx.

The Great Pyramid remained the tallest building in the world until early in this century and it was built in just under 30 years. It presides over the plateau of Giza, on the outskirts of Cairo, and is the last survivor of the Seven Wonders of the World.

Five thousand years ago Giza, situated on the Nile's west bank, became the royal burial place. There are three pyramids and the Sphinx and all were constructed in the fourth dynasty of Egypt's Old Kingdom, arguably the first great civilization on earth.

Today, Giza is a suburb of Cairo, the largest city in Africa and the fifth largest city in the world.

The Pyramids are an amazing site to see and something that everyone should see once in their lifetime. Source(s): 34 Years in the Travel Business and I have been to Egypt many times.
