The Great Pyramid of Giza is considered one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World. Built around 2580–2560 BC as a tomb for the Pharaoh Khufu, this monumental structure exemplifies the architectural prowess of ancient Egypt. Originally standing at approximately 146.6 meters (481 feet), it was the tallest man-made structure in the world for over 3,800 years. The Great Pyramid's precise construction, alignment with the cardinal points, and sophisticated internal layout reflect the advanced engineering skills and religious beliefs of the Egyptians. Today, it remains the only surviving wonder, drawing millions of visitors and symbolizing ancient achievement.
