Pyramids of GizaThe Pyramids of Giza are a complex of three massive royal tombs built for the pharaohs Khufu, Khafre, and Menkaure during Egypt's Fourth Dynasty (c. 2600–2500 BC). The most famous is the Great Pyramid, built for Khufu, which was the tallest man-made structure for nearly 4,000 years. Each pyramid was part of a larger mortuary complex that included temples, smaller satellite pyramids, and the Great Sphinx

The museum houses a collection of Egyptian artifacts from various periods of the Egyptian civilization, from the Predynastic Period to Roman Egypt, with an estimated total of over 100,000 artifacts,including at least 20,000 that will be displayed for the first time ever, including the complete King Tutankhamun collection comprising 5,398 pieces. The Tut collection is on display in a 7,500 m2 section of the museum. Some newly-restored pieces will be displayed for the first time, such as the second solar ship of Khufu, the collection of Queen Hetepheres (mother of King Khufu),and the collection of Yuya and Thuya (parents of Queen Tiye).
