 Step pyramids are big, but they’re not considered real pyramids.

 Egypt’s largest pyramid is in the trio of The Pyramids of Giza. It is Khufu’s pyramid that is the biggest. It stands 480 feet tall!

 The inside of a pyramid has many chambers. It holds the pharaoh’s valuables and body ( until the Valley of the King’s ).

 Most people believe that it was slaves who built pyramids, but that’s wrong. Skilled craftsmen actually built them.

 There are quite a few interesting pyramid facts too. One for example, is that today some casing stones can still be seen on top of Khafre’s pyramid. Another is that sometimes, the pharaoh’s family sometimes is left in the pharaoh’s tomb to die with him/her ( I think that’s just wrong to do ).
