One Place Essay, Research Paper

IF I COULD VISIT ONE PLACE IN THE WORLD I WOULD GO TO THE

GREAT PYRAMIDS OF EGYPT. THE PYRAMIDS AMAZE ME THE WAY THEY

WERE BUILT. THE WAY THE EGYPTIANS DESIGNED AND CONSTRUCTED

THEM WITHOUT ANY MODERN DAY TOOLS OR MACHINES. THEY USED

WHAT THEY HAD AND CREATED MANY GREAT STRUCTURES THAT

WOULD, EVEN NOW, BE VERY HARD TO RECREATE. THE WAY EACH

BLOCK WAS LIFTED AND PLACED PERFECTLY WHERE IT SHOULD BE.

THE WAY THE CREATED ROOMS, TRAPS, AND MAZES TO CONFUSE

EVEN THE SMARTEST PERSON THAT ENTERED THERE.

ANOTHER THING THAT INTRIGUES ME ABOUT THE PYRAMIDS IS

THERE PURPOSE. THE EGYPTIANS CREATED THEM USUALLY FOR ONE

SINGLE PERSON. ALTHOUGH THAT SEEMS LIKE A LOT OF WORK AND

HARD LABOR AND COMMITTED TIME FOR ONLY ONE PERSON AND ALL

THEIR TREASURE, IT WAS WORTH IT FOR US TO LOOK BACK AND THANK

THEM TODAY FOR THE GIFT THAT THEY BROUGHT THIS WORLD. IF IT

WASN’T FOR THEM THEN WE MAY HAVE NEVER SEEN ANYTHING AS

GREAT OR UPLIFTING AS THE GREAT PYRAMIDS OF EGYPT.

ALTHOUGH, IF I WAS BUILDING THEM NOW, I BELIEVE I WOULD

HAVE BUILT THE PYRAMIDS A LITTLE BIT DIFFERENT. FIRST OFF, I

WOULDN’T HAVE MADE THEM SYMMETRICAL. I WOULD HAVE

ELONGATED THE BASE AND MADE IT AT A RIGHT ANGLE INTO AN “L”

SHAPE. IF THEY WERE IN A DIFFERENT SHAPE IT WOULD HAVE

CONFUSED GRAVE ROBBERS EVEN MORE. SECOND, I WOULD HAVE

MADE MORE FLOORS, RAMPS, AND STAIRCASES WITH MANY MORE

TURNS SO THEY NEVER KNOW WHICH DIRECTION THEY ARE HEADING

IN. FINALLY, I WOULD LEFT SOME SORT OF SIGN INSIDE THE PYRAMIDS

SO PEOPLE THAT EXPLORE IT AFTER ME WOULD KNOW HOW AND WHY I

BUILT IT. I BELIEVE THE PYRAMIDS ARE GREAT STRUCTURES.

ALTHOUGH I DO NOT AGREE ON HOW THEY WERE BUILT IN SOME WAYS,

I WOULD RATHER VISIT THEM THEN ANY OTHER PLACE IN THE WORLD.

THAT IS WHY I WANT TO VISIT THE GREAT PYRAMIDS OF EGYPT.
