Waiting to go in the Great Pyramid. The tunnel is very small but leads to the King's Chamber about half way up the pyramid.
The entrance is behind me to the right. The King's Chamber is is half way up the wall.
The Pyramid was covered by a limestone finish. You can see a little bit of it at the top.
The Great Pyramid built by the 4th Dynasty king, Khufu (2589 - 66 BC). There were over 30 dynasties!
