4. Great Pyramids
Located in Giza, the Great Pyramids were the resting places of kings and other people of wealth.
Originally covered with a marble type rock, today they look more like the photos on the right.
The Romans defaced them with graffiti and used them for target practice. That’s why the Sphinx doesn’t have a nose.
