Sphinx
At an estimated age of 4,500 years, the Great Sphinx endures as one of the few remaining Seven Wonders of the Ancient World. Situated on the Giza plateau, on the west bank of the River Nile, a brief half-hour drive west of Cairo, it commands attention. This colossal statue, standing 240 feet (73 meters) tall and stretching 240 feet (73 meters) in length, stands as the largest surviving monument from antiquity, a testament to the timeless allure of ancient Egyptian civilization.
