The Pyramids of Giza are estimated to be approximately 4,500 years old.

These ancient structures have stood the test of time and continue to be a testament to the remarkable engineering and architectural skills of the ancient Egyptians.

In the present day, it may be difficult to accurately determine the actual height of the Pyramids of Giza owing to their outer casing stones having waned over the centuries.
