The Great Pyramids at Giza is the most popular landmark of this country, having a dramatic cultural past. They are without question the icon well known since historic times. They have been both the main destination for tourists and a source of imaginative thought around the world for over three thousand years. A few are grouped around and near the City of Cairo, just south of the Nile Delta. Only one royal pyramid is known in southern Egypt (at Abydos), that being the one built by Ahmose founder of the 18th Dynasty. It is believed that the shape was chosen in order to mimic the Benben, a pyramid shaped stone found in the earliest of temples, which itself is thought to symbolize the primeval mound from which the Egyptians believed life has emerged. This also connected the pyramid to Re, the Sun God as it was he according to some of the ancient Egypt mythology, who rose from the primeval mound to create life. Another landmark is the Nile which is the longest river in the world, stretching north for approximately 4,000 miles from East Africa to the Mediterranean. Studies have shown that the river gradually changed its location and size over millions of years. The Nile flows from the mountains in the south to the Mediterranean in the north.
