A man sits atop a traditional wooden horse-drawn carriage (Hantour) on the road directly in front of the Great Pyramid of Khufu at the Giza Plateau, one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World and the only one still standing. The pyramid, built around 2560 BCE during the Fourth Dynasty of the Old Kingdom, originally stood 146.6 meters tall and remains the largest ancient pyramid in the world. Horse-drawn carriages are a common local transport and tourism feature around the Giza necropolis, operated by local vendors offering rides to visitors.
