Giza Pyramids Complex is regarded as one of the most incredible sites in history and the site is still full of many hidden mysteries, especially those which are related to the process of the three Great Pyramids construction; how they selected the suitable site and prepare it and how they raised the massive blocks of stone. The site has three precious pieces of diamonds of Khufu, Khafre, and Menkaure, which date back to the period of the 4th dynasty and still remains the most popular man-made pyramid on Earth.
From the first moments of its construction, it served as the loyal guardian of the cemeteries at the Giza Pyramids Complex and it's amazing to know that the word "Sphinx" is a Greek item that means the living image which is a mixture between physical power and the mental power that's why the statue was carved with a lion's body and a human's head to combine between strength and wisdom.
It was used as a burial temple for the rulers of the 4th dynasty as well as for their family members. It's situated to the East of Kharfe's pyramid and it's devoted to King Chephren. The main purpose of the Valley temple is for the process of mummification and purification and it's enough to know that the Valley Temple is one of the best-preserved contents at Giza Plateau.
