Ancient pyramids found in China are older than Giza
Perhaps the greatest mystery of the pyramids found across China, the Chinese pyramids have remained relatively unknown globally for centuries, including within China. These ancient structures doubt China’s central plains and deserts, predominantly in Shaanxi province. However, the Chinese communist government has imposed strict prohibitions on excavating and visiting these ancient edifices.
Local farmers living near the pyramids are encouraged to plant trees on them to conceal their presence. With over 200 pyramids discovered, their true purpose and origin remain a complete mystery, obscured not only by physical barriers but also by governmental restrictions. The first recorded mention of these pyramids in the West dates back to 1912 when travel agent Fred Meyer reported their existence.
There are no massive pyramids. However, it wasn't until the mid-20th century that these structures gained significant attention during World War II. American pilot James Gausman flew over the area and captured photographs of these structures.
But, it wasn't until the advent of satellite imagery that we were able to understand the true scale and numbers of these Chinese pyramids similar to pyramids elsewhere in the globe. The Chinese pyramids are precisely oriented with their corners perfectly aligned to the earth's coordinate directions.
In terms of astronomy they are slightly misaligned from the Gemini constellation aligning almost exactly during the spring equinox several millennia ago this slight deviation of 14 degrees can be explained by the axial procession of the earth. A phenomenon where the planet's axis slowly wobbles completing a full cycle approximately every 25,700 years this means that these pyramids could be tens of thousands of years old.

All three sites are structured in almost the exact same way and mirror the Orion constellation, how is this possible considering all three of them are on different continents separated by thousands of miles?
Moreover, all three pyramid complexes are aligned in a near-straight line having the same orientation, was this just a coincidence or is there more to the story?
The remarkable presence of Chinese pyramids, particularly the colossal great white pyramid located in the valley of Shaanxi province is considered by many the largest pyramid in the world. It's twice the size of the Great Pyramid of Giza with a height of around 1,000 ft. or 3,00 meters, this means that the construction of this gigantic pyramid would require no less than 50 million tons of stone.
Additionally, the gigantic stones extracted from the Yang Shan Quarry could also have been used for the construction of all of these pyramids, the most famous site in China the Terracotta Army is also built right at the edge of a massive pyramid that is still unexcavated.
Discovered in 1974 by farmers while digging a well the Terra Cotta Army encompasses more than 8000 soldiers along with chariots horses officials acrobats strong men and musicians each with unique facial features and expressions suggesting they were modeled after real individuals the figures are life-sized and were originally painted although much of the paint has flaked away over the centuries.
The Terra-cotta Army was part of a larger necropolis designed to mirror the urban plane of the capital city and served to protect the emperor Qin Shi Huang in the afterlife.
The mystery surrounding the Chinese pyramids extends far back in history with documented references to these structures dating back to the early 17th century, notably a Roman Jesuit whose observations have been preserved in various historical accounts, penned some of the earliest Western descriptions of these remarkable constructions.
However, it was Joseph De Guignes, a renowned French orientalist and sinologist in the 18th century who significantly contributed to the discourse with his provocative theory in his 1785 publication an essay in which we prove the Chinese are an Egyptian colony.

De Guignes posited a direct connection between the Chinese and ancient Egyptians largely based on the presence of pyramid-like structures in China along with certain cultural and linguistic similarities indicating a possible historical link between the two civilizations, but the architectural features of these structures do not resemble just the pyramids in Egypt but those in South America.
There's an interesting site known as the Guanlin Temple located near Luoyang in the Henan Province. This site is steeped in history and reverence, primarily known as the tomb and memorial complex for Guan Yu - a famous general in Chinese folklore and history while the temple serves as a commemorative site.
Its architectural features and the age of some structures within the complex suggest a much older origin potentially predating the commonly accepted historical timelines associated with the temple. Many believe the ancient Chinese used this structure as a tomb, the same way as the ancient Egyptians used various ancient sites in Egypt.
Although, they were not their true architects as these sites were way too advanced for their brome tools and knowledge. The tomb of the general located in Jilin province in China is part of the Guan's tombs complex. This pyramid structure was most likely thousands of years older than the Guan kingdom which used the pyramid as a tomb, although they didn't construct it.
The pyramid shape of the tomb of the general represent a unique architectural style in east Asia distinct from the more rounded burial mounds commonly found in other part of China and Korea.
Curiously, this pyramid has a broad base that narrows towards the top very similar to the Mesoamerican pyramids built by civilizations like the Aztecs and Mayans, the similarities are intriguing from a comparative perspective because their builders were believed to have developed independently on the opposite sides of the world.

These similarities are not just superficial they extend to the engineering techniques, the orientation and alignment with astronomical events and the multi-tier design that is characteristic of many pyramid structures around the world.
The idea that such architectural and engineering concepts could ban across continents and cultures suggests a potential exchange of knowledge or a common architectural lineage that has yet to be fully understood, curiously all across the world there are ancient stories about mythical figures that visited our ancestors and gave them advanced knowledge and technology kickstarting their civilization.
In Mesopotamian mythology, the seven sages sent by the god "Enky" (God of Wisdom, Civilization and Culture) to teach humanity the arts of civilization including writing, law, temple building and agriculture. In Mesoamerican culture, particularly among the Aztecs and Toltecs, there's Quetzalcoatl a provider of agricultural knowledge who taught the ancient people the use of metalwork, the calendar and the cultivation of maize.

In Egyptian mythology there was Thoth. A deity who gave the Egyptians writing in the form of hieroglyphics together with various other advanced knowledge boosting their civilization significantly many researchers like Graham Hancock believe these beings were survivors of an ancient cataclysm that destroyed the advanced civilization that constructed all of these massive megalithic monuments across the globe. These survivors then spread across the world and gave knowledge to the primitive hunter-gatherer societies.
Interestingly, in Chinese mythology, we can find a similar figure the yellow emperor Wang Di is a mythic figure in Chinese history that is often regarded as the progenitor of Chinese civilization. His contributions to the fabric of Chinese culture are immense ranging from the creation of traditional Chinese medicine including acupuncture to the introduction of wooden houses. The bow and arrow, bronze coins and written language.

The knowledge and technologies he gave to the ancient people were so immense that he became known as the founder of Chinese civilization comparing the Yellow Emperor with other civilization bringers all across the world one can discern a pattern where these figures are often credited with introducing critical advancement to the society all of this would essentially mean that the advanced mega structures found all across Chine were the works of a far more ancient civilization, a civilization lost to time and missing from our history books.
One of the more controversial discoveries in China is the so-called Baigong Pipes, the enigma of Mount Baigong's mysterious pipes remains one of the unresolved mysteries of the past decade. In 1996, a research expedition found around two dozen pipes with diameters ranging from 1 to 50 inches or 2 to 40 centimeters embedded in the rock formation suggesting an intricate man-made structure.
These perplexing objects have sparked widespread media attention but have yet to be scrutinized by rigorous scientific study. Theories about their origins are abundant and varied with suggestions ranging from an ancient water system to an advanced lake drainage mechanism. Chemical analysis of the pipes indicated a high content of iron oxide alongside a significant amount of silicon dioxide and calcium oxide.
Remarkably, the artifacts were estimated to be over 5000 years old predating the known advent of iron smelting in China. Public information about the Baigong Pipes emerged in June 2002 when a Chinese newspaper published an article claiming the discovery could challenge the entire narrative of human history, following this other publications sensationalized the pipes as remnants of technologically advanced structures captivating public interest.
During a search for dinosaur fossils near Mount Baigong a group of American scientists encountered several caves containing more peculiar objects among these were two rusty iron pipes each about 40 cm and approximately 16 inches in diameter. One pipe seemed to stretch from the mountain's peak into the while the other descended from the cave floor suggesting they were part of an ancient system or mechanism of the three caves identified, two had collapsed obscuring their contents.
Later investigations in the area revealed additional pipes approximately 12 with diameters ranging from 2 to 5 cm roughly 1 to 2 inches suggesting a complex and extensive network, observers have noted that the pipes are completely connected suggesting their creators possessed highly advanced technology. These pipes were found near Lake Toson about 80 meters or 260 feet from Mount Baigong with sizes ranging from a few centimeters to as thin as a few millimeters similar to a toothpick.
Some of these pipes were embedded in the Lake's bottom or protruding above its surface, despite their discovery they have yet to attract significant scientific scrutiny and are seldom mentioned in academic circles. Among the conjectures is the idea that the pipes are part of an ancient water management system possibly linked to a pyramid-like structure which is speculated to have stood 50 to 60 meters or around 200 ft. tall on the mountain featuring triangular shapes and wells leading down its sides.
This hypothetical is thought to have channelled water from Lake Toson through the complex network of pipes. Serious discussion about the origins of the Baigong Pipes necessitates a detailed chemical examination, one of the few to conduct such an analysis is Chinese scientist Liu Shaolin who found that the pipes mainly consist of iron oxides, calcium and silicon with about 8 % of the materials unidentified.
Liu's research suggests that the pipes might be calcite formations or pseudomorphs where minerals replace organic matter like wood roots over time akin to the fossilization process, this theory is supported by atomic spectroscopy studies in 2003 which detected organic compounds and growth rings indicating the pipes are natural formations not artefacts of advanced technology.
Despite these findings, the mystery deepened when in 2007 Chinese Seismological Bureau reported significant radioactivity in some pipes adding another layer of intrigue. If the pipes are natural formations why would they have radioactive properties?
The complete story of the Baigong Pipes remains partially told with their precise nature and origin still awaiting further exploration and scientific inquiry it's most likely that the so-called pipes are just natural formations created by ancient trees that fell were calcified and fossilized we still know for certain that the Yang Shan quarry with its gigantic stone block the cave networks carved with advanced technology and all the hundreds of pyramids scattered across china are all man-made constructions.
All of these mega-structures alone are enough for us to conclude that there was an advanced ancient civilization that resided in what is now China this civilization still remains a mystery.
