  The Teti pyramid is the second pyramid containing text. The texts in the Teti pyramid are inscribed on the walls of a hidden room. The texts can mostly be found in the pyramids of kings, and Teti was one. These texts were reserved for the soul of the deceased Pharaoh. These texts were put there by the scribes, and they were put there to free Pharaoh's soul from his body so that Pharaoh can ascend into heaven. These texts are significant in Egyptian culture. The places where these texts are written are sacred, that is why you need to go on tour, and you need a tour guide, 

The pyramid of Cheops is also known as the pyramid of Khufu. It was constructed about 4500 years ago, it took about 100,000 workers, and it took 20 years to build it. It is the oldest and biggest of the three pyramids in the Giza pyramid complex. In all of the seven wonders of the world, it is the oldest and most intact. It used to be the tallest human-made building until the Lincoln Cathedral was finished. It has three chambers, the King's room, the Queen's house, and the lower chamber. You will have the opportunity to wonder at the Great Sphinx
