At the base of the impressive Chufu (Cheops) pyramid, the only remaining of the 7 original wonders of the world, which originally was 146m tall and has a 230m sides at the base, took 30y to construct and has enough 2-30 ton building blocks (2.3m) to circle France with a 3m wall - and all this done at 2,500 BC ! I am standing in front of smooth casing stones - pyramids originally had smooth surfaces, howere most of the casing stones were stripped and used for construction of other buildings / Prie ispudingos Cheopso piramides, vienintelio is islikusiu 7 pasaulio stebuklu; si piramide buvo 146m aukscio, pagrindo krastines 230m ilgio, pastatyta per 30 metu is 2-30 tonu bloku (2,3 milijono is viso), kuriu uztektu visai Prancuzijai apjuosti 3 metru siena - ir viskas pastatyta apie 2,500 m pries musu era; as stoviu prie nugludintdu ploksciu, kuriomis kadaise buvo apdenta visa piramide, taciau beveik visi akmenys buvo veliau panaudoti kitu pastatu statybai
