- Let's go inside the "third" pyramid of Giza! I managed to take my camera there and now I can show you the inside of this pyramid, closed to the public for many years! You will see rare footage and hear lesser known facts. I will tell you about the pyramid of Menkaure itself, its complex, and discoveries.
It's a must-see video for all who visit Egypt or Luxor - the country of the first pharaohs. To appreciate and cherish the magic of the place before you travel to Egypt watch this. My vlog / full documentary will give you little taste of ancient wonders: ancient architecture, ancient beliefs, and ancient history.

You make such wonderful videos that I'd like you to hook up with 'The Land of Chem' .....Geoff and his Mrs I'm sure would aid your trips and knowledge gain. ❤😊❤
I couldn’t subscribe fast enough
I like to join
It sounds like English is a second language to you , what is your original language? Your English is great I’m just curious.

Thanks for not having an annoying voice. So soothing and listenable.
😊thanks for watching
She's just plain lovely isn't she?
Can hardly understand anything said. Accent too thick.
@@bertanelson8062 learn to grow ears I guess
@@bertanelson8062
Gee, I'm legally deaf, but I understand her just fine. I just love her accent plus many aspects of her work.
New subscriber. I enjoy the deliberate and well paced commentary. It provides the viewer with time to absorb the beauty of the site.
Thank you so much!
You are living the life I dreamed of since a kid… thank you for letting me sort of experience it through your videos. If things align in my life hopefully I can visit one day too!
I love how slow and steady you capture the structures - letting us viewers take it all in like we are there. And the script is well-written and engaging. Phenomenal video!
subscribed ^.^
Thank you! welcome on board
Beautiful videography and very well researched commentary. You have taught an old Egypt enthusiast new things about the Giza plateau. Best wishes!
Thank you so much
Wonderful video as always Irena! Beautifully written, narrated and filmed.
Thank you! ❤️
Thank you for this beautiful footage, some of the best I’ve seen. And thank you for pointing out the fact that granite is impossible to manipulate with copper. That fact needs to sink in to our psyche, there is more to Egypt than meets the eye 🥇🤯🔥
Thank you!
How do you know, have you tried it?
@@szaki it’s not rocket science. And personally? No. But many have, with the same result. There isn’t enough copper on the planet to cut and shape the all granite, basalt and other igneous stonework we see in Egypt. Granite can’t be manipulated to the degree we see in Egypt with copper tools.
Loved this video and you are a very beautiful narrator! 😊
Thank you ❤️
The filming, narration, editing, are all incredible. Thank you, and you did a great job of bringing the viewers here!
Thank you so much 😊✌️
I love this Lady's presentation and her accent. Beautifully made video and with a fresh way of looking at the Great Pyramid with little-known facts make this one of the best I have seen and I have seen most of them.
Thanks for watching ❤️
Great video and content, thanks for the tour! Cheers!
I was in Egypt two-three weeks ago and I was able to explore the inside of Menkaure’s Pyramid. This pyramid is easier to explore than others. Highly recommended.
That's true!
Exceptional Kudo's to the surreal musical background accompaniment!1!
Thanks 😎
-The Best Video Quality Ever! :) ...and the narrator provided lots of interesting information in conjunction with the captured video. A most pleasant presentation.
Thank you, Thank you, Thank you ❤️
YES!!! YOU'RE BACK 😊. Nice to escape the winter weather of Germany for a while.
oh yeah, I escaped from the cold and darkness 😉
This is my favorite type of video. Beautiful pictures with a very comprehensive description.
Thanks 😁✌️
What a cool channel! Traveling around to amazing locations and taking a deep dive into the rich history and culture. I look forward to watching many more! Happy travels and may fun and adventure always present itself in novel ways!
Thank you so much ✌️
Hello Irena, been awhile. The acoustics in the inner chamber are wild! I'd love to bring my acoustic guitar in there. I honestly have NEVER seen that long gash on the pyramid face before, and I've seen dozens and dozens of documentaries on the Great Pyramids. Using gun powder 😝. I'm glad you were FINALLY able to get inside though. Terrific walk through and as usual your Camera person did a fantastic job. With the close ups I could almost smell and taste the stone work! 😝🤣. Until next time, keep up the great work!! 🤘😁🖖🇨🇦❤️🍻
Thank you Colin! ❤️ I'm really glad you enjoyed it!
The arched stone ceiling was pretty amazing. Thanks for the share. :O)
Thank you!
Thank you for your wonderful videos. Not only do I get to see Egypt in a new and different way, but I always learn something too. Great work!
Thanks James
Love all your videos specially this video inside Menkaure pyramid never seen a video inside the pyramid until this one... keep up the good work...
Thank you so much! Hope you subscribed to be up to date with my new episodes. :)
Thanks for the tour. This was my first time seeing the inside of M's pyramid. Great attention to detail.
Thank you 😊
@@ancientsitesgirlI guess you didn't like my response to the alt-history crowd, huh?
The camera work in this video is exceptional. Unlike your other videos, there were no jerky movements or fast transitions. It flowed smoothly and was well-shot. Your storytelling remains excellent, as always.
Thanks! :)
Superb quality, thank you. The extreme precision of the engineering, particularly in the micron fine alignment of those huge internal slabs, is absolutely mind blowing.
Thanks! that's why we love the ancient egyptians!
Nice, this is how I want to see & hear knowledge about the pyramids.. 👍
Thanks for watching!
@@ancientsitesgirl My pleasure!!
Wonderfully atmospheric video ...surely one of the best about the Giza Pyramids.
one of the best about Giza... thank you for the true compliment ❤️😊
Love the beautiful cinematography!!
Thank you
Around the black pyramid of Dahshur you can recognize the two entrances, which are located in the southeast and southwest corners. But they are filled with sand and debris and hidden under pieces of white rock scattered around, which are clearly differentiated from the dark clay material of which the rest of the pyramid is made. I suppose your visit will show it only from the outside. But in the rare case you had obtained permission to enter inside, you will be one of the first people to get it, so please share with us some tips about what needs to be done to get it 😉
Doing ground work for my first trip and happily found your great narrative. I took note that only pyramid in Giza dedicated to a woman is now available for visitation.
Beautifully told and filmed, great job as always!🌹
Thank you dear!
always so fascinating to see the inside of any pyramid, and the bit of smooth wall visible on the outside is great. what stood out to me is how intense the erosion on the limestone is, like they must've known at the time how it would erode compared to granite, but of course it was probably way easier to do it in limestone lol
Thanks for this comment!
Originality has its merits...yet, maintaining these incredible structures is paramount also. I am definitely for the restoration and preservation. Bravo
Loved the footage! If I'm not mistaken there were at least 3 individuals discovered in the pyramid. The tomb robber, the one in the wooden anthropoid sarcophagus, and there was one in the original black granite/basalt sarcophagus that sank on the Beatrice on the way to England. Could the one that sank with the Beatrice have been Menkaure? Some people think the body was female so maybe one of the queens? It's interesting that some sources do not even mention this body found in the sarcophagus. It's frustrating that such a priceless discovery is sitting on the bottom of the sea off the coast of Spain. The wreckage washed up on the shores of Cartagena.
This is so amazing
Humans are so creative to have came up with the idea of using sand to grind down the harder rocks like granite
Your presentation skills are excellent. I am going to watch some more of your videos now. Thank you.
Thank you
Beautifully filmed and enthralling narration, with interesting information, thank you.
Thank you so much 😊
Well done!!! Now I’ll have to see what other adventures you have posted
I'm glad you like it, I hope you stay ✌️
I like how she points out that copper tools couldn't be used to break into the granite chamber. This begs the question, then how was the granite chamber made with just copper tools?
So much wrong information in this video 😯
@@Mariel_Moonwhat was the wrong information?
copper tools" has been a repeated, deliberate inaccurate claim. The "copper" is not pure but actually a mix called Arsenical copper. (much harder)
@@Finness894 Harder than granite? Nope. In fact, a 30% increase in hardness means it may still struggle with limestone and wear quite quickly. The arsenic's primary benefit is better casting. Who's making an inaccurate claim again?
I knew I wouldn't have to scroll very far to see the "...couldn't do it with copper tools...had to be a far more advanced, power tool using, ancient hidden knowledge havin', I know this because I"M the expert thinkin'", graduates of Hancock, Carlson, Foerster you tube university of " I'm just asking questions, but mainstream academics are all corrupt except the ones that seem to support the Younger Dryas impact hypothesis that was, in some ways, similar to the Chixulub asteroid impact 66 million years ago, without the extinction of significant percentages of flora and fauna the world over." You guys never fail to amuse. Live long and prosper.
Your commentary itself takes us to the "Pharaoh's rule"and we feel we are in that age's beautiful imagination formed in the minds and hearts of people lived during the period.
Thank you so much ✌️
Was very interesting! You see info on the other 2 but never on this one. Thanks so much!
Thanks for watching ✌️
Wonderful, always interesting!❤
Thank you so much ✌️
This was a great video, maybe my favorite you’ve made on a single monument so far. I love hearing about the history of its construction and discovery while you stand inside and show what you’re describing.
Very very beautiful photography, the explanation was amazing,👍
Thank you
Thank you, ancient sites girl, happy to hear again.
Thank you ✌️
No w końcu ktoś zrobił film o piramidzie Menkaure. Kapitalne zdjęcia, muzyka i montaż. Brawo!❤
Są inne filmy. Ale są dość stare.
I tried the Super Thanks again after reporting to you it didn't work. It's working this time, so have a coffee or tea on me! Cheers!
Thank you for your support ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
@@ancientsitesgirl You're very welcome! What's your favorite site so far?
But you make a TOP NOTCH production. You deserve a show and funding.
Thanks 😊
Excellent video and Thanks for the information .
Thanks for watching
You are living my dream of studying Egypt in person
I go there every year, one day I will stay there
I want to go ride the iron ore train through the Sahara desert and walk around Egypt and Jerusalem on camels forever
Does that mean they have closed Khafre's? Because normally in Giza they only have two pyramids open at the same time.
Yes, Khafre is currently closed.
@@ancientsitesgirlThat's what I thought. When I visited Khafre's last year, the burial chamber was filled with large wooden boxes. I don't know if they would be for maintenance work or because they are carrying out some type of scanning project there.
Great video footage. Thank you for sharing.
Thanks
I often wonder what the romans thought when they saw this workmanship in egypt
This needs to be thoroughly looked into!
Yay! So glad to see you in Egypt again! (the other places are nice but Egypt is /Egypt/! 😉 )
Your filming and narration are still the best! ❤
Thanks 😁❤️
Bravo Irena! Well done as always!
Thank you!

Very well done, thank you!
Thanks!
It’s nice to have a hobby.
Those casing stones look very similar to the massive walls in Peru. Even with the mysterious knobs.
Great vid, thanks
Thanks for watching
Great vid
Thanks!
Very interesting . Great video
Thank you!
Super!!! Nareszcie doczekaliśmy się relacji prosto z Egiptu. Kapitalny odcinek. I jaki na czasie!!!
Dziękuję Grzegorz, już się o Ciebie martwiłam!
@@ancientsitesgirl Trochę byłem zabiegany, a Ancient Sitesów nie lubię oglądać w pośpiechu. Wygodny fotel i odpowiednie nastawienie psychiczne, to w tym temacie podstawa.
Very good made and lot of interesting information! And you are also amazing natural beautiful person!
Thanks for watching ❤️✌️
Thanks to you, it was a pleasure! I will watch more!
Amazing you got in without gunpowder.
If you are aware of the architectural principle they were built from, it will be easy to find the entrance. It appears those before, did not know it.
these entrances were blocked with stone blocks and camouflaged. even if they knew which wall to bark on, they didn't know at what height... it wasn't that easy
Fascinating.
Thank you!
Very nice video, greetings from Sweden
Thank you!
Beautiful
Nice 👍
I was there last year, it was amazing experience being inside the pyramids
So true! Thanks for commenting! :)
Very precisely built with great craftsmenship ....💯💫...

One red to another ❤😊
Thanks for watching, best regards ✌️
Well done.
Thanks
This pyramid forms the mirror image of Orion, too.
Thanks for this comment!
The highly controversial casing stone project has been stopped 👍
Oh no! Where did you read that?
Good stuff!
Thanks
@@ancientsitesgirlBeautiful shots and informative. I like that it captures the feel of the city so well - it took me back to when I walked through those streets many years ago (and bought a scarab beetle).
The Last Royal Monument To Be Built On The Giza Plateau Was For A Queen Who Also Served As King and was the mother of two kings. Her gigantic "Per Djet," House of the Eternal Serpent, (aka 3-tiered mastaba) of Nesi (King and Great Royal Queen) Khen-Ta-Ka I (Khentkaus I), at the southern edge of the Giza necropolis and just east of the Pyramid of Nesi Menkaure. HER MEMORIAL TEMPLE, WHICH ABSORBED A PRE-DYNASTIC "BAT TEMPLE," WAS THE PROTOTYPE OF THE 5TH DYNASTY 'SUN' TEMPLES WHICH WERE RAISED BY HER BROTHER-IN-LAW, SHEPSESKAF, AND HER SONS' ASAR-KAF (USERKAF) AND RA-ANU-SAH (SAHURE).
MOTHER OF 2 KINGS - Great Royal Queen Khen-Ta-Ka I, (Khentkaus I), depicted as a Nesi (King). She is seated on a throne wearing the Vulture Diadem and Uraeus, along with a short ritual beard, and holding in her hand a Hetes Scepter - all Royal Emblems 'reserved' for Kings of Kemit. Then there is the matter of the inscription. Her title, "Mut Nesi-bity, Nesi-bity," should be translated as "Mother of the King of Upper and Lower Kemit AND King of Upper and Lower Kemit".
oh dang...my heart
funniest part about Egypt wanting to restore the pyramid to it's original condition, is how many times in the past has it already been restored.?.?.?.
You are the luckiest girl in the world
Yes I am😉
nice
Thanks!
nice!!
Thanks
Heyy there beutiful is there still food or wine in the food Chambers obviously it wouldn't be OK to eat but I was just wondering what's to hide or do u not know? Xx
