How big is the pyramid?

The Great Pyramid is the largest existing pyramid in Egypt and is known as "one of the seven ancient wonders of the world". It was built during the reign of the second Pharaoh Khufu of the fourth dynasty in Egypt (about 2670 BC). The original height was 146.59 m, but now it is 136.5 m due to the peeling of the top. The four inclined planes of the tower face southeast and northwest respectively, and the tower foundation is square. The tower covers an area of 52,900 square meters and consists of 2.3 million huge stones with different sizes, each weighing 1.5 tons to 160 tons, with an average weight of about 2.5 tons. According to research, it took 65,438+one million people 20 years to build the Great Pyramid.

1989 March 16, Egyptian archaeologists excavated the mummy of an ancient Egyptian princess 4,400 years ago in a shallow pit at the bottom of a pyramid in the pyramid area of southwest Cairo.

The world-famous Sphinx is next to the Havla Pyramid. It is said that the transmission surface is a simulated image of Ha Fula. For a long time, due to the excessive humidity and poor ventilation in this pyramid, cracks appeared in the inner wall of the tomb. 1992, the Havla Pyramid experienced another earthquake with a magnitude of 5.4, which was partially damaged. After more than two years of comprehensive renovation, it was reopened in July 20001year.

The ancient Egyptians expanded this shape by tens of millions of times, stood in the desert, and then put this stone of the same or gold on the top of the pyramid, refracting the brightness of the sun to the king's land. Let people benefit from the sun god. This shows that the pyramids have a strong religious nature. Another feature of pyramid architecture is its stability and permanence. The earliest stone structure building in the history of ancient Egyptian architecture is the left pyramid. This public pyramid is built with big stones. Their single tetrahedral diagonal and wide and flat square abutment acute steeple give people the feeling of being steady, solid and unattainable.

It is the largest of the ten pyramids built in Egypt 4500 years ago. It used about 2.5 million boulders. Thousands of workers are working in the scorching sun. Now there are three huge pyramids standing in the desert near Cairo.

The pyramids in Egypt were built in Giza 4,500 years ago, about 13 km southwest of Cairo on the west bank of the Nile. The base of the pyramid is square and narrower and narrower. It gathers at the top of the tower to form a square building. Its four sides are shaped like the word "gold" in China, so it is called the pyramid in Chinese. In ancient Egypt, it was called "Pyrimus". It means "high". The pyramids are tombs built by the kings of ancient Egypt for themselves. Among the nearly 100 pyramids, large and small, that have been discovered in Egypt, the largest and most famous is the third generation pyramid located in the desert of Giza province in the southwest of Cairo. They are the Great Pyramid (also known as pyramid of khufu), the Havla Pyramid and the Menkoala Pyramid.
