Egypt: The Land of Wonder

Sorry

Great Pyramids

Located in Giza, the Great Pyramids were the resting places of kings and other people of wealth. Originally covered with a marble type rock, today they look more like the photos on the right.The Romans defaced them with graffiti and used them for target practice. Thats why the Sphinx doesnt have a nose.
