Weiße Pyramide, Ancient pyramid near Xi'an, China
The White Pyramid stands at a height of 300 meters with sides measuring approximately 450 meters in the Qinling Mountains southwest of Xi'an.
American pilot James Gaussman reported sighting this monumental structure during a flight over central China in 1945, leading to extensive media coverage.
Chinese imperial burial traditions incorporated pyramid structures, with different colors symbolizing cardinal directions: green for east, red for south, white for west, black for north.
The presumed location of the White Pyramid remains inaccessible, as the area is designated as a restricted military zone without public access.
The dimensions reported for the White Pyramid would make it significantly larger than the Great Pyramid of Giza, which measures 147 meters in height.
