Pyramids Found In China VS The Ones founds In Egypt.Why Did China Keep This A Secret?
Yes, it is true that Xi'an, Shaanxi, China, is home to numerous mysterious pyramids located alongside the Wei River.
The pyramids of China are approximately 100 ancient mounds, many of which were used for burial. Most of them are located within 100 kilometers of the city of Xi'an, on the Qin Chuan Plains in the Shaanxi Province, central China.
While some of these monuments feature step-like structures reminiscent of those found in Mesoamerica, many others are simply enormous earthen mounds that conceal intricate underground chambers and passages constructed for the benefit of royalty. The tallest of these pyramids stands at 154 feet, although it was originally 249 feet tall during its prime.
It is widely accepted among archaeologists that China's pyramids were constructed as a means of paying tribute to esteemed emperors and their families.
Some of these tombs have underground palaces, kitchens, and even toilets. Chinese historian Sima Qian once said that over 700,000 workers built Qin Shi Huang's tomb, but this number is now believed to be too high. British historian John Man thinks the project probably needed 16,000 workers and took about two years to finish.
