Great Pyramid of Giza, Egypt. The Great Pyramids, located at Giza on the west bank of the Nile River north of Cairo, are the only wonder of the ancient world that has survived to the present day. The three pyramidsâKhufu (Cheops), Khafra (Chephren) and Menkaura (Mycerimus)âwere built between 2700 B.C. and 2500 B.C. as royal tombs.
The Great Pyramid of Giza is the most substantial ancient structure in the world - and the most mysterious. According to prevailing archaeological theory - and there is absolutely no evidence to confirm this idea - the three pyramids on the Giza plateau are funerary structures of three kings of the fourth dynasty (2575 to 2465 BC).
