This monument is worthy for its symbol, it's creativity, and it's beauty.

In between the front paws of the Sphinx is a granite stela, now called the “Dream Stela”, which is inscribed with the story of the pharaoh’s dream." Some history about the Great Sphinx is known so there always hope of finding out the mystery of the wonderful creation.
