The Giza complex is right next to Cairo. Actually, it might be within the city limits. Far enough from the downtown core to survive a single moderate nuclear blast I would think.

While the postcards show the pyramids standing in the desert, the city comes to within ~300m of the base. Downtown is only 10km from the pyramids.
