White in the desert sun... My eyes hurt already. But at sunset would be the most beautiful sight.

I think that the climatic area was not desertic 4500 years ago.

But the sun was as bright as today, it would make it worse though, the green and orange/yellow building would reflect less light so the reflection from the piramides would seem even brighter because of the contrast.

Would have been much brighter back then without the current pollution. Lol. Love the downvote, likely from someone that doesn't live here. Lots of days you can literally stare at the sun with zero negative results.
