Egyptian pyramid charter tour to watch the sunset guide

The pyramid read in the encyclopedia, The pyramid built with toy blocks⏳️, When you see it standing on the edge of Cairo, Egypt, The shock that hits you✨, Makes you can't help but 'wow' out loud. Getting up early and rushing directly is very good, If you only have time in the afternoon, you can also play well👍. Follow this guide to enjoy playing and watch the millennium sunset at the pyramid. ⏰Important time: Play time: It is recommended not to be less than 3 hours Opening hours: 08:00-17:00 To the viewing platform: 16:00 Sunset time: 16:30-17:00 The sun sets behind the viewing platform, and you can take a silhouette of the hillside. 👣Regular route: Enter from the north and exit from the east, there are fewer people at the north gate. 👣My route: Suitable for afternoon trips, living near the east gate. The road at the east gate is too congested, and it is not worth going to the north gate for at least half an hour. 📍Enter from the east gate-Sphinx-Go through the pyramid from the sand between the two main roads-Viewing platform-Go around the pyramid on the other side-Exit from the east gate; 👉The pyramid scenic area is too big, there are many tourists in the afternoon, but it does not affect playing and taking pictures. There are more camels and horse-drawn carriages, and the picture will be richer. 👉The camels and horse-drawn carriages leaving the field have separate exits, don't follow them. You just pass through the middle of the pyramid and walk while taking pictures in the direction you came from. The scenic area begins to clear the field, and someone will urge you to leave quickly. These people with bad attitudes are really staff members😂Very credible. 🎫Tickets, the price has increased! Half price for students Enter the scenic area: 540 Egyptian pounds for adults. You need to buy a ticket to enter the pyramid. It is said that there is nothing inside, it is stuffy and hot and narrow, so I gave up. If you want to see murals and tombs, you can go to the Egyptian Museum, the temples and the Valley of the Kings in Luxor. 👉Tickets cannot be bought with Cash, if you want to save money, find someone to help swipe the card. Local people buy tickets at the door, and we charge an extra 30 for student tickets. The ticket issuance is smooth, and the process is not allowed to be filmed. 👉It is now strict to buy student tickets. Ask the age when buying tickets, and ask one by one when checking tickets. Remember how old you are, friends, if you can't speak English clearly, just gesture with your hands. 📌Tips: ①Don't trust anyone, if you are followed, pretend to be angry and interrupt in time. The second before is the ticket checker's various warm reminders, and the next second he becomes a camel broker who talks endlessly. Tell him 'You're annoying (you're so annoying😡)' and he will leave. ③It's not hot in Cairo in December, and it's not bad to walk and take pictures if you're afraid of being pitted by riding a horse or camel. Only take pictures with camels at the viewing platform, 50 pounds per person. After taking the picture, he still wants more, don't give it! ③Bring water, bring water, bring water! Either wear high-top shoes, or wear socks + slippers like me, otherwise it will be uncomfortable to get into the sand.

Great Sphinx of Giza

The Sphinx, with the body of a lion and the face of a human, is about 73 meters long, 21 meters high, and 5 meters wide in the face. It is carved from a single giant rock and sits on the south side of the Hafra Pyramid, only 350 meters away from the Khufu Pyramid. It was built by Khufu's son, Djedefre, to commemorate his father, and the Sphinx is undoubtedly the largest statue ever built by humans in history.
