The plateau opens before you in a wide sweep of sand and limestone; the three great pyramids stand like weathered monuments while the Sphinx watches the horizon. Wind lifts a line of dust that briefly erases the base of the structures, then clears to reveal perfect photographic frames — riders on camels cut silhouettes against the ancient stones, and ATVs leave transient tracks where pharaohs once planned eternity.
