The Pyramids are extremely large-- so large that a Sim is dwarfed in comparison.

Al Simhara is a premade destination sub-neighborhood introduced in The Sims 3: World Adventures along with Shang Simla and Champs Les Sims. It is found in Egypt and features activities and items that explore Egyptian culture. The name is a reference to the Sahara Desert of Egypt. This town features fully explorable tombs and hidden tombs, including famous Egyptian landmarks such as the Pyramids, the Sphinx, and Temple of Queen Hapshepsut, and many adventures to experience. It is an excellent subhood for Sims to improve their Photography skill. There are numerous premade families in Al Simhara, although they all unfortunately lack description texts. An Egyptian trip costs §1600 for the first Sim and §1000 for each additional Sim.
