The Fascinating Secrets and Mysteries of the Pyramids of Giza

Only the strength of a mountain rock could withstand the weight of the pyramid. This was the case here because the pyramid itself sits on a granite outcrop located very close to the surface, directly beneath the pyramid.

The Significance of the Location

The pyramid was built facing north. It is located exactly at the center of the Earth’s landmass. Its east-west axis aligns with the longest parallel that runs through Africa, Asia, America, and Europe.
