Most of the pyramids in Egypt were built in the third and sixth dynasties.

The pyramids of Giza belong to King Kabra on the left and King Kuff on the right, and there is a sphinx nearby. The main building material is limestone, and some are granite.
Eighty pyramids have been discovered in Egypt, the most spectacular of which is the pyramids of Giza built around 2600 BC, all of which were artificially built. How did the ancient Egyptians carve stones and build tombs? The layout of the passages and rooms inside the mausoleum is like a maze. How did the ancient Egyptians design it?
2 Zeus idol:
Zeus is the god of Greek gods. The statue of Zeus built for worship was the largest indoor statue in the world at that time. The Temple of Zeus, where the statue of Zeus is located, is the birthplace of the Olympic Games, and some Olympic events are held here.

4 hanging garden:
Like the colossus of Rhodes, archaeologists have not found the remains of the hanging garden so far. In fact, many ancient people mentioned hanging gardens in their works, but they only heard of them from others and never really saw them. Is the hanging garden a pure legend?
The Hanging Garden is located east of the Euphrates River and about 50 miles south of Baghdad, the capital of Iraq. It is one of the four ancient civilizations in Babylon. Of course, the hanging gardens in Babylon have never hung in the air. The origin of this name is purely due to people's mistranslation of the Greek word "kremastos" and the Latin word "pensilis", whose original meaning is "hanging".
It is generally believed that the Hanging Garden was built by King Nebuchadnezzar (604-562 BC) to comfort the homesick princess Amyitis, imitating her hometown in the mountains.

Themis is the Greek goddess of hunting. Arabs call her Rath, Egyptians call her Isis, and Romans call her Diana. In ancient Greece, themis was deeply worshipped, so he built the Temple of themis, one of the seven wonders.

6 The Colossus of Rhodes:
The colossus of Rhodes is the most mysterious of the ten wonders, because it collapsed in just 56 years, and archaeologists have not even been able to determine its exact location and appearance.
The colossus of Rhodes is located in the port of Rhodes, leading to the Mediterranean Sea. In 305 BC, the Federation of Rhodes and antigone.

8 Great Wall of Wan Li, China:
One of the great projects in ancient China. It was built in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period (770-476 BC) and was built by the Ming Dynasty. It starts from Jiayuguan in Gansu in the west and reaches Hushankou on the Yalu River in Dandong, Liaoning in the east, running through Gansu, Ningxia, Shaanxi, Shanxi, Mongolia, Hebei, Liaoning and other places. Along the way, there are Shanhaiguan, Juyongguan, Niangziguan and other checkpoints.
Qin Shihuang later connected these intermittent Great Walls. It is said that 300,000 soldiers and millions of people and slaves were used at that time. However, the Great Wall can't completely prevent foreign invasion, because after the completion of the Great Wall, northern foreigners still often cross the Great Wall, raid villages on the border of China, and rob crops or livestock.
The Great Wall is the only three-dimensional building in history that can be seen from space. It is not easy to build it with modern science and technology, but it is really rare for China to build it in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period more than 2,000 years ago. The building materials of the Great Wall are all made from local materials, which vary greatly from place to place. In the Han Dynasty, the Great Wall was built of mud and reeds. The volume of the Great Wall is also different. Juyongguan area is about 8.5 meters high and 8.5 meters wide at the lower part. The upper part is about 5 meters wide. There is a castle (equivalent to a tower) every 70 ~ 100 meters, and its height is about 12.3 meters. Most castles are heavy, and there are only two or three key places.
The eastern section of the Great Wall passes through mountainous or hilly areas, which is called "cutting mountains to build ancient buildings" and "blocking them with dangers" in ancient times, with ups and downs and magnificent shapes; The middle and west sections are arid areas, sparsely populated and desolate. If you visit Yanmenguan, Juyongguan, Gubeikou or Shanhaiguan in the middle, and overlook the excellent situation of mountains and rivers in China, you will marvel at the difficulties of our ancestors in opening up territory and arouse infinite thanks, Sir.
9 Port Alexandra outside Fallows Lighthouse:
In 332 BC, Alexander the Great of Macedonian Empire established an ancient city-Alexandria, west of the mouth of the Nile River in Egypt. After the death of Alexander the Great, the Ptolemaic dynasty in Egypt began to rise, and Alexandria became the capital of the Ptolemaic dynasty and prospered. Besides, Alexandra has been found.
The joint location of Asia, Africa and Europe can also lead to the ports of the Nile and the Mediterranean. You can imagine how Alexandria prospered and how world trade developed. In addition, the Faroes lighthouse, one of the seven wonders of the world, shines on the seaport of Faross Island in Alexandria. Egypt also has a large number of temples, palaces and other architectural relics. Although Alexandra is so prosperous, Alexandra has changed beyond recognition today. Scientists believe that most of these buildings have collapsed because of a great earthquake in the fourth century AD. Scientists have made many excavations in Alexandria. Among them, in an excavation in 1996, French experts claimed that large-scale ancient relics were found at the bottom of Alexandria, and traces of ancient roads and paving stones were also found. Investigators found an ancient Greek pot that sank to the bottom of the sea in ancient times. There are two handles on the pot, which are used to transport wine and other trading items. The investigation team also found the head of the statue of Pharaoh. The staff first fixed the Pharaoh's head with metal utensils, and then sent the statue into the water with balloons. The survey was conducted at the possible location of the Fallows lighthouse. Just compare the head of the statue with the staff next to it, and you can imagine the huge statue. With these discoveries, thousands of cultural relics have been excavated for many investigations. Most of the excavated remains weigh several tons to dozens of tons. From these ruins, we can gradually imagine the mysterious lighthouse of Fallot. Due to the prosperity of Alexandra and the backward navigation technology in ancient times, we can imagine that the Fallot lighthouse shining on the whole port plays an extremely important role in defending the lives of ancient sailors. Whether future generations can have a clearer understanding of the Fallot Lighthouse depends on whether the government and experts will pay attention to the excavation of Alexandria. If Puerto Alexandra
