The architecture of ancient Egypt was characterized by monumental structures such as temples, pyramids, and tombs. These structures were typically built using limestone, sandstone, and granite, with intricate carvings and hieroglyphic inscriptions. The most famous examples include the Great Pyramid of Giza, the Temple of Karnak, and the Valley of the Kings. Egyptian architecture was influenced by religious beliefs and the Pharaoh's divine status, leading to the construction of elaborate and grandiose buildings that served both practical and symbolic purposes.
