吉萨金字塔群(Giza Pyramid Complex)坐落在西部沙漠边缘,俯瞰开罗,是埃及最具代表性的考古遗址。该建筑群建于古王国第四王朝时期(约公元前2613–2494年),核心为三座宏伟的金字塔:胡夫大金字塔(原高146.5米,3800年间曾是世界最高建筑)、哈夫拉金字塔(高143.5米,塔顶仍保留部分原始石灰石外层)以及规模较小的孟卡拉金字塔(高65米)。大斯芬克斯像由天然岩层雕刻而成,狮身人面,守卫着通往陵区东侧的入口。围绕主金字塔群的,还有规模较小的王后金字塔、贵族马斯塔巴墓、祭庙与河谷神庙、通道以及一处工匠村落的遗迹。该遗址是1979年列入联合国教科文组织世界遗产名录的“孟菲斯及其墓地”遗产地的一部分。游客可以漫步整片高地,轮流进入部分金字塔内部参观,并近距离欣赏斯芬克斯像及相关神庙。
