The Pyramid of Giza
Walt:write an information report.
The pyramids were built because when the pharaoh dies the Egyptians would put him into a tomb then finally put him into the pyramid. The pyramid was built over 2000 years before Christ. The pyramid was built to protect the pharaoh’s body.
The Great pyramid was built for Pharaoh Khufu. King Khufu ruled Egypt for over 20 years.
Khufu’s pyramid was built in Giza. It was built on a plateau. The pyramid was built away from Cairo. The pyramid entrance was always in the north. The pyramid was part of other buildings.
The pyramids height was almost 7 metres high. The Egyptians used 2,300,000 limestone blocks. The pyramid was the tallest structure before the Eiffel Tower was built.
People are allow to go into the pyramid. You have to be fit to go in the pyramid because the tunnels are skinny. Mostly tourist explore the giant pyramid. Inside the pyramid is very small. Khufu’s pyramid was one of the seven wonders.
