touch a pyramid

I’ve touched one of the three pirmaides from Gizeh in Caïro. Nope, you can not climb the piramides, but you can touch them and you can walk in the biggest pirmaide where you can see the farao grave (you have to pay for walking down the piramide, but it is amazing!) You can not be in the piramide for to long, cause there is not enough oxygen to breath.

Egypt is a very beautiful country. One day i will go back to visit Luxor.

i would love to visit egypt it just seems so amazing so full of culture!

and to know that those pyrimids have been there for a
long time and knowing that old pharos were
burried there and the architecture must be amazing!!!

i hope i get to visit them
in
my lifetime

Can we climb it?

WOW! i have been thinking of this entry sense i knew of the word PY RA MID !!!!!

My maternal family is from the Sierra Lione even though that is on the west coast of Africa,I am told my ancestors were buried  in lower egypt, but misplaced during  the Arab and European colonization!!! They are Thieves it's true!

My family hosted an exchange student from Egypt and we visited him when I was in 6th grade. We stayed with his family for a week in downtown Cairo…I can’t wait to go back.

I have always felt strongly about doing this. It started when I was very little and I hope I get to do this sometime soon.

sorry, i thought i had a new addition to my list until i realized i DID touch a pyramid in guatemala. i ran up one!!

Unlikely

We took the children (aged 3 & 5) at the time, on an excursion to Coba to see the Pyramids. My 5 yr old and I climbed to the top and down again and then my husband did it on his own. My 3 yr old would have had a hard time with it.
Amazing and worth it!

The pyramids at Giza were beautiful yet they were a little too close to Cairo and a bit formidable to truly experience by climbing. The pyramids in Mexico and Guatemala are more accessible and usually more remote in the jungle, and it’s an amazing romantic rich experience much better than the pictures as you climb the ruins at Tikal, Chichen Itza, or Palenque. In contrast, the experience of the great pyramids in Egypt were less amazing than the pictures despite being much harder to get to for us Americans. But the pyramids in Egypt are still well worth it, if I go again, I’ll try harder to find a way to climb them (if that is allowed any more) or get a tour inside.
