According to the National Geographic, the Pyramid of Khufu on the Giza Plateau includes three burial chambers. One chamber is carved from the bedrock beneath the pyramid, while the king's chamber is accessible through the Grand Gallery and is home to a sarcophagus made from red granite nestled at the pyramid's center.

Visitors are welcome to enter and explore the pyramid by way of corridors to the interior chambers.
