Major Tunnel Network Discovered Under The Great Pyramid of Giza. Major tunnel discovered going straight under the Great Pyramid Temple discovered under the Kufu causeway with 100m corridor of sealed rooms Kufu Palace located under modern Burger King and mosque
Researchers have discovered extensive tunnel networks under the The Great Pyramid of Giza — a major tunnel running beneath the Great Pyramid, a temple under the Kufu causeway with a 100m corridor of sealed rooms, and the Kufu Palace located beneath a modern Burger King and mosque. An Osiris shaft-style tunnel with descending sealed chambers may connect to the large void above the Grand Gallery, while a 150m tunnel runs from the horse stable project area to the Sphinx. Urban development and a planned metro line between Giza and Saqqara threaten these newly discovered access points.
