Summary[edit]
DescriptionAt the centre of the Great Pyramid (38515178320).jpg |
Here we are deep inside the Great Pyramid of Giza (also known as the Pyramid of Khufu). This is the King's Chamber and at the rear, behind me, you see the stone sarcophagus in which the King was entombed. The mummy and richly-decorated artifacts are in the Cairo Museum. The pyramid itself is 146.7 metres (481 ft) high, constructed about 2580–2560 BC and lies just outside the Cairo suburbs. The original picture I uploaded was of poor quality. Since then I've found a better copy & substituted that. It's such a pity that political instability and terrorism has decimated the tourist trade to this remarkable place. Camera was a Nikkormat FTn (I think) and 50mm f2.0 AI lens. Film not known but 90% of my photos were on Kodachrome. As always I was carrying two Nikons and got someone to take this. |
