Legends of the Nile

The Great Sphinx of Giza with the iconic Pyramids of Giza in the background, located in Egypt. The ancient limestone statue of the Sphinx, featuring a lion's body and a human head, stands prominently on a sandy plateau. Behind it, the three grand pyramids rise majestically under a bright blue sky with scattered white clouds. A lone palm tree adds a touch of greenery to the arid desert landscape.
