A Climb Back in History
The three smaller Pyramids of the Queens are located alongside the Pyramid of Menkaure.
Menkaure was a pharaoh of the Fourth Dynasty of Egypt during the Old Kingdom.
His pyramid was completed in 2570 BC and is the smallest of the pyramids that are the Giza Pyramid Complex.

Not only do you see our Converse sneakers, you see the Funerary Temple in-front of the Pyramid of Menkaure, the Pyramid of Khafre, and a glimpse of the Great Pyramid.
Views All Around Us
The climb of the smaller pyramid was relatively easy and offered a fantastic view of the Sahara Desert as well as an interesting perspective of the Giza Plateau and the bordering city of Giza.
