The Great Pyramid of Giza is about 4,500 years old, and is the only ancient wonder still standing. Until the early 1800's, the Great Pyramid at Giza was the tallest building in the world! The Great pyramid is nearly 800 feet long, 450 feet high,
and built with over two million of blocks of stone. The average weight of
each stone is about 2,500 pounds - around the same weight as a car!
