One of the original 7 wonders of the ancient world, the pyramids of Giza have been a fascination with humans for millennia.
The massive Great Pyramid, built for Pharaoh Khufu and completed around 2560 BC, is the only of the 7 wonders of the ancient world still intact.
Located on the outskirts of Cairo, Egypt, this complex has a total of 6 pyramids, 3 towering pyramids (Khufu, Khafre and Menkaure) and 3 smaller pyramids, plus a giant sphinx. It is an attractive destination for tourists.

Several thousand years on Earth still do not reveal all the secrets of the Pyramids. Built from 2.3 million tightly bound stone blocks with a total weight of 5.9 million tons. In particular, each stone block weighs from 2-30 tons, even with blocks weighing 50 tons.
Until now, scientists still cannot understand what means of transport the ancient Egyptians used to transport and build such a large mass. In addition, the Giza pyramid complex has geographical challenges that astronomers cannot decipher.
Located in the center of the Earth's continent
The Great Pyramid of Giza is located at the intersection of the longest meridian and the longest parallel of latitude.
Many consider the Great Pyramid of Giza as one of the oldest, greatest and most perfect "scientific monuments" on Earth, created thousands of years ago.
It is not only an architectural and engineering wonder, but also a geographical wonder because the Great Pyramids of Giza are located at the intersection of the longest meridian and the longest parallel in the world.

The three pyramids of Khufu, Khafre and Menkaure form a perfect line on the ground. At the same time, they are also aligned with the 3 stars that make up the constellation Orion's Belt. This hypothesis was first proposed by Robert Bauval in 1983.
According to computer modeling, the Great Sphinx and the three Pyramids at Giza correspond to the Orion belt in 10,450 BC.
The mystery of the triangle
According to History.com, the world exists an anomalous "Triple Mystery" . There are 3 most mysterious areas in the world , the Pyramids of Giza, the " Silent Zone" in Mexico and the Bermuda Triangle (in the Atlantic Ocean) lying on the same line on Earth.
"Silent zone" has the ability to disable all types of sound waves, phones. The Bermuda Triangle is the place where the mysterious disappearance of a series of ships and blood flies.
Giza points towards the north pole of the Earth most accurately
This building points to the North Pole more accurately than any other building in the world.
Another interesting thing is that the Giza Pyramids complex face right towards the northernmost point of the Earth. This building points to the North Pole more accurately than any other building in the world.
Although built thousands of years ago, the pyramid is only 0.05 degrees away from the North Pole. This is because the North Pole changes over time. When it's done, it heads towards this exact point.
