About this image

This sweeping landscape photo captures the iconic Great Pyramids of Giza, one of the most famous ancient Egyptian historical landmarks, rising from warm pale desert sand on the Giza plateau. Weathered golden limestone pyramid structures contrast vividly against a deep blue sky lined with thin, wispy cirrus clouds, creating a bright, timeless scene of ancient wonder. This world-famous archaeological site near Cairo, Egypt is the only remaining original Wonder of the Ancient World.
