After several passages, he recognized several buried pyramids. He took pictures but it was not until the opening of the country to the rest of the world to have confirmation.<br \/>\n\u00a0<br \/>\n\u00a0<br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-15696\" src=\"https:\/\/eden-saga.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/pyramide-pseudo-chinoise-688po.jpg\" alt=\"pyramide-pseudo-chinoise-688po\" width=\"688\" height=\"413\" \/><br \/>\n\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>In October 1994, at the end of skilful negotiations, researcher Hartwig Hausdorf was finally allowed to visit. He evaluated more than 900 the number of these pyramids, whose size varies from two or three meters up to 300 meters, twice the size of the Great Pyramid called Cheops.<\/p>\n<p>The strangest is the resemblance to the pyramids of Mesoamerica and Egypt. I wonder why the secret is so well kept on this topic of global interest. Decidedly, China cultivates, besides that of secrecy, a taste for paradox and a marked penchant for superstition. In Macau, where I stayed in the early seventies, I saw how simple people as well as literate were stuck to it.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-15702\" src=\"https:\/\/eden-saga.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/pyramide-chinoise-aerienne-688po.jpg\" alt=\"pyramide-chinoise-aerienne-688po\" width=\"688\" height=\"413\" \/><br \/>\n\u00a0<br \/>\n\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>In the street, frequent altars decorated with red and gold spread their aphrodisiac incense smoke. These are Shenist altars &#8211; Chinese \u795e; pinyin: sh\u00e9n. The shen, or traditional Chinese religion is a polytheistic syncretism, or in good French an amalgam of all the gods, all the beliefs, all the symbols, icons and statuettes of the religions of the world.<\/p>\n<p>The shen is openly practiced in Macao as in Hong Kong or Taiwan. But in <a href=\"#\">PRC,<\/a><span class=\"note\">People&#8217;s Republic of China<\/span> this popular religion is forbidden. Officially, the Chinese Communist Party does not tolerate any superstition. Unofficially, these very atheist gentlemen show all the outward signs of naive fetishism.

Death captures life, can we read in the ancient Breton chapels still decorated with <em>danses macabres<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>Unfortunately, the Chinese do not show more originality than our square and dusty archaeologists. For both, the pyramids can only be tombs. It&#8217;s wrong and it&#8217;s silly. There are tombs of great personages in all the medieval cathedrals. However, must we conclude that cathedrals are tombs? They were built for the living, not for the dead.<\/p>\n<p>The curse of Touth Ankh Amon fell on Carter and Carnavon. All the discoverers of his tomb perished in the years following the discovery. The profaners were punished, we heard then.<\/p>\n<p>A day later, perhaps, I will tell you the incredible story of the curse of Pharaoh. Incredible especially because it contains a fabulous secret. Mummies are alive. Or more exactly, they are inhabited. And that, the Chinese Communist Party does not ignore it.

This is at least the official version supported by the competent authorities. The Chinese government has hidden the pyramids under fast-growing conifers, hoping that in twenty years nobody will be able to spot them. Derisory ruse. It was counting without Google Earth.<\/p>\n<p>All Chinese pyramids are located in the plains of Qin Chuan, except the great White Pyramid, a stone one, in the Qin Lin Valley.
