NO! the pyramids were meant to keep the dead body, not the live king (though the pyramid was being built when he was alive).
The Great Sphinx sits in front of Khafra's pyramid. It is in Giza, which is located in Egypt. It was built to seem as if it was guarding this pyramid.
khafra
The pyramid of Khafre is the second pyramid to be built. It is slightly shorter at 430ft than the great pyramid of his father Khufu. In pictures it always looks taller because it was built on higher ground. It is the pyramid with some of its casing stones left at the top.
No the tallest is the Great Pyramid of Khufu at 146m. Khafre's pyramid is shorter at 133m. It looks taller because it was built on an outcrop of rock.
The Pyramid of Khafra (also known as Chephren) is located on the Giza Plateau in Egypt, near Cairo. It is the second-largest pyramid in Giza and is part of the complex that includes the Great Pyramid of Khufu (Cheops) and the Pyramid of Menkaure.
