Tickets to any part of it must be purchased in advance at the ticket offices, so you have to keep in mind that once you are inside there will be nowhere to buy them. The entrance to the site costs <strong>200 EGP<\/strong>, and there are packages with different prices depending on the monuments you want to access inside. Read on to see the places and the price of each of the monuments that we recommend you to visit in Giza!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-1-the-pyramid-of-cheops-or-of-jufu\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"1-The-pyramid-of-Cheops-or-of-Jufu\"><\/span>1. The pyramid of Cheops or of Jufu<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Of the three majestic pyramids, the pyramid of Cheops is undoubtedly the largest and most important. It was built by order of the pharaoh Cheops around 2,570 B.C. It is so huge that no less than 2.3 million stones weighing 2.5 tons were used to build it! So, do not doubt that this pyramid will be one of the monuments that will impress you the most when you go to see Giza. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Today the summit has eroded and its ancient white or pink limestone cladding has also disappeared. Nevertheless, it remains an enigmatic and fascinating construction. When you go there, it is sure to meet all your expectations. Remember that inside you should also visit <strong>the queen&#8217;s chamber<\/strong>, <strong>the great gallery<\/strong> and <strong>the king&#8217;s chamber<\/strong>. <strong>The entrance fee is 400 EGP<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure

It was completed in 2600 BC. This incredible architectural work will impress you with its grandeur. Although the pyramid of Cheops is larger, the higher location of the pyramid of Chephren will make it one of the most impressive Egyptian remains that you will see in Giza. In addition, inside of the pyramid there is the mysterious <strong>sarcophagus chamber<\/strong>. <strong>The entrance fee is 100 EGP<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Just 500 meters from the pyramid of Chephren, is the <strong>Kephren Funerary Temple<\/strong>. In addition to being the entrance to the funerary complex, it is believed that he mummification process was carried out in these temples.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" data-attachment-id=\"28251\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/egypt\/things-to-do-in-giza\/attachment\/chephren-pyramid\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Chephren-pyramid.jpeg?fit=1024%2C768&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"1024,768\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"Chephren-pyramid\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Chephren-pyramid.jpeg?fit=300%2C225&amp;ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Chephren-pyramid.jpeg?fit=1024%2C768&amp;ssl=1\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Chephren-pyramid.jpeg?resize=1024%2C768&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Things to do in Egypt\" class=\"wp-image-28251\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Chephren-pyramid.jpeg?w=1024&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Chephren-pyramid.jpeg?resize=300%2C225&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Chephren-pyramid.jpeg?resize=768%2C576&amp;ssl=1 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">The impressive pyramid of Chephren at Giza @ Sayed Khalid<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-3-solar-ship-museum\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"3-Solar-ship-museum\"><\/span>3.

This boat measures no less than 43 meters and was a very important element in Ancient Egypt. They believed that in this type of ships the dead traveled to the afterlife guided by the sun god. Visiting the Solar Boat Museum is perfect to learn more about the rites and curiosities used by the ancients, it will surprise you a lot. <strong>The entrance fee is 100 EGP<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-4-the-pyramid-of-mycerinus-or-menkaura\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"4-The-pyramid-of-Mycerinus-or-Menkaura\"><\/span>4.

But that doesn&#8217;t make it less amazing. It&#8217;s magnificent like the rest of the monuments you&#8217;re going to see in Giza. Continuing with the dynasty, this pyramid was ordered by the grandson of Cheops and son of Cheops, Mycerinus. You will differentiate it also because it has a large crack caused by an explosion that took place in the 12th century AD to obtain material for building in Cairo. <strong>The entrance fee is 100 EGP<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Also, on the south side of the pyramid of Mycerinus, there are the so-called <strong>pyramids of the queens<\/strong>.

It is undoubtedly one of the places that will impress you the most when you visit Giza. Its grandeur and majesty have impacted millions of travelers. Although its date of creation remains an absolute mystery, several researches agree that it was around 2,500 B.C.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The great sphinx is believed to represent the lion-bodied Pharaoh Khafre. Although it could also be a lion-bodied guardian to represent strength and wisdom in Ancient Egypt. In any case, its mysticism makes the great sphinx an even more attractive monument. It was sculpted on limestone rock and was once painted in bright colors. Today, its orange stone glows in the desert sun, and although it is not painted in color, it is a beautiful sight.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default

This city has hosted different civilizations, and today that translates into an atmosphere of magic, history and mystery. We recommend you to approach and wander around its vibrant streets full of people until you reach the <strong>market of Khan El Khalili<\/strong>. There a characteristic aroma of spices and products of a thousand colors permeates every corner. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition, Cairo offers an extensive list of monuments to visit, such as its famous <strong>Citadel<\/strong>, <strong>Mezque of Ibn Tulun<\/strong>, or the <strong>Cairo Tower<\/strong>.
