City of the Gods, Giza Plateau

The Great Pyramid of Giza is the only wonder of the ancient world still standing. In addition to being an architectural marvel, some believe that beneath the Giza Plateau exists something almost as extraordinary: a massive series of underground tunnels and chambers.

Beginning in 1978, researchers began to map out a massive underground complex that they referred to as a potential “metropolis.” Known as the City of the Gods, it is still shrouded in mystery. Considering this vast underground city is directly beneath one of the most important historical structures in the world, it is not likely that its mysteries will be easily unlocked for the foreseeable future. Furthermore, many vocal opponents to the theory of the City of the Gods claim that they don’t exist and are a pseudoscientific idea invented to support the notion of alien gods.
