I went to see Pyramids of Giza
I went on a small trip — visited Portugal, Spain, Greece, Turkey, and Egypt. It was my first time in Egypt (and in Africa in general), so of course, I had to visit several historical places — temples around Luxor, and, of course, the Great Pyramids of Giza, the Sphinx, and so on. I’ve been reading and watching things about all of this for many years. The Pyramids of Giza are a truly breathtaking sight on so many levels — historical, architectural, and even just on a simple, ordinary “standing there and looking at them” level.
The whole trip was very interesting, and I took in a lot. And as you might guess, the obvious questions immediately come up: how was all this built? Who built it? When? Can we just trust the mainstream historical explanation, or is there something more complicated going on? That’s exactly why I wanted to see it all with my own eyes — to really feel the scale by being there in person.
I don’t have a neat, tidy explanation for how all of it could have been built, but I do have doubts about the official stories. I’ll write more about that later.
