The largest is the pyramid of Khufu. It is made of 2,300,000 huge stones, most of which are higher than a person. It is about 144 meters high. To build this pyramid,100,000 men worked for twenty years.

Scientist's think it took 10,000 men more than ten years to build. On top they built a temple to the sun. The temple is no longer there, but people call it the Pyramid of the Sun.
