The Great Pyramid of Giza is the oldest of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World and the only one to remain largely intact.
It is thought to have been built as a tomb for an ancient Egyptian pharaoh over a period of around 20 years up to 2560BCE.
The pyramid was originally covered by highly polished white casing stones that formed a smooth outer surface, but centuries of erosion mean the structure's stepped underlying core is visible today.
It is thought to be made up of around 2.3million limestone blocks believed to have been transported from nearby quarries.
Originally towering at 481ft, the Great Pyramid was the world's tallest man-made structure for over 3,800 years.
