The one and only surviving ancient Wonder amongst the Seven and still standing tall The Great Pyramid of Giza. It never needed any appreciation by the poets and historian its structure it self describes its dignity better. It’s located in the city of Giza, ancient cemetery of Memphis and currently part of Cairo, Egypt.

This great monument was build by the Egyptian pharaoh Khufu of the Fourth Dynasty around the year 2560BC to serve as a tomb when he dies. It is believed that this pyramid was built in 20 years.

When it was built its height was 145.75m (481 ft) but till now it lost 10m(30 ft) from its top. It remained the tallest structure on earth for more than 43 centuries. The horizontal cross section of the pyramid is square at any level and each side haves measuring 229m (751 ft) in length. The maximum error between side lengths is less than 0.1%.

Area 51.It is the most renowned military establishment on our earth that does not officially present. If it did, it would be present nearly hundred miles away from Las Vegas in Nevada’s high desert, tucked between United States Air Force base and deserted nuclear testing ground.

On the other hand, might be not, as the United States government refuses to say. You cannot go or drive close to it, and till now, the air space overhead has been bounded all the way to outer space. Any mention of Area 51 has been edited from official record, even those documents that have had security classification removed for decades.

It has turned into as the Holy Grail for many conspiracy theorists, as UFOlogists continue to state that the Pentagon reverse engineers UFOs and keep extraterrestrials stored in freezers. Urban Legend accounts that this Area 51 is linked with some other secret establishments through underground tunnels, passages and trains across the country. In 2001, Katie Couric said while talking to Today Show audiences that seven percent of American citizens have doubts on moon landing happening; they believe that it was arranged in the Nevada desert. Hundreds and thousands of X-Files fans think that the truth is “out there”, but there are more chance that it has been concealed somewhere in Area 51’s Strangelove-esque hangars-buildings that, had also been confirmed by Google Earth; however the authorities refuse to acknowledge.
