Close profile of the Great Sphinx with Khafre pyramid behind

Highlights

  • Likely Old Kingdom origin associated with Khafre.
  • Layers of repairs show centuries of conservation attempts.
  • Best views: terrace promenade, south flank for profile + pyramid alignment.

Photo Tips

Angle Position Light
Classic profile Terrace railing Morning side light
Sphinx + pyramid Slight elevation Late afternoon warmth
Close textures Side paths (permitted zones) Soft overcast

Bottom Line

Allow standalone time for the Sphinx—it tells a parallel story to the pyramids and rewards patient observation.
