The colossal statue, known as the Fallen from the Heavens, was created during the reign of Pharaoh Chephren (2558-2532 BC) and remains the largest ancient statue ever constructed, featuring the body of a lion-like Sphinx and the face of Khafre.
The Valley Temple is a large granite mortuary temple essential for preserving time through the mummification process.
