Légende

Pyramids of Giza at sunset, Egypt. The Pyramid of Cheops is the only surviving one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World. It was built in the 26th century BC to serve as the tomb of the Pharaoh Khufu (Cheops). The Pyramid of Chephren is the tomb of another Pharaoh of the ancient Egyptian 4th dynasty, Khafre (Chephren), who was Khufu's son. Menkaure (Mycerinus) was Khafre's successor. The pyramid that housed his tomb stands slightly apart from its too larger neighbours.
