The crowds gathered at the Pyramids of Giza are always in for an awe-inspiring view. Recently though, one visitor was left stunned when he spotted a dog at the top of one of the ancient monuments.

The sight was spotted by paragliders while flying over the Great Pyramids at sunrise earlier this week. The next day another adventurer discovered the same dog safely descending the pyramid.

A stray dog that was spotted on top of the 448-foot-tall (136-metre) Pyramid of Khafre in Giza has been trending on social media over the past few days. The impressive scene – which amassed millions of views – was captured by paraglider Marshall Mosher and his fellow paragliders while flying over Egypt's Great Pyramids at sunrise this week.

Soaring high into the sky, paragliders are used to enjoying fascinating aerial views of some of the world’s most famous ancient landmarks. But the landmarks don’t usually have dogs hanging out on top of them.

Apollo, his siblings and their pack mother, are among dozens of stray dogs at the pyramid complex and millions in Egypt.

A leader of a rescue group immediately recognized Apollo, one of millions of stray dogs in Egypt, barking at birds atop the Pyramid of Khafre.
