It is forbidden to climb to the top Very close to the pyramid are the Mortuary Temple of Khufu * The Pyramid of Chephren: Is the best preserved of this complex, still keeping the exterior limestone layer overlying the pink granite. You can visit the two burial chambers and empty sarcophagus. * The Pyramid of Menkaure: It is the smallest of the three and older who have suffered looting. *The Sphinx Alongside these pyramids stands the imposing Sphinx of human head and lion’s body was built on the basis of natural rock formations to which was added polished stone. It is believed that some deity represented but could not be known for sure who it was. His condition is not ideal as it has suffered serious deterioration due to mass tourism and environmental degradation. Although it is still majestic.
