10 Most Heavily Guarded And Secured Locations On Earth by Fessy09(m): 11:38am On Jul 25, 2017 |
Ever wondered why some of the most secure locations on Earth are also some of the most mysterious places on Earth? Whether they're supposedly concealing the existence of aliens at Area 51, protecting the President at the White House or setting up a fail-safe in case of a global catastrophe at the Svalbard Global Seed Vault, there are many locations that can be considered the safest places in the world. Here are the 10 Most Secured and heavily guarded Locations on the Planet that are considered the safest, for various reasons. 10. Cheyenne Mountain Complex, Colorado,USA The complex has housed a number of government organisations over the years and it was previously the home of the US-Canadian Aerospace Protection Project. The complex is built underneath 2,000 feet of solid granite. 9. Bold Lane Car Park, Derby, UK The car park was built in the 1970s and had developed a reputation for crime and drug abuse by the 1990s. It was in response to this that local security agencies decided to rebrand Bold Lane as a state of the art car park. Barcoded tickets are needed to get in and out, cars are monitored by motion sensors and barriers come down if security is breached. 8. Granite Mountain Records Vault The Church of Jesus Christ of the Latter Day Saint owns a huge archive of records and history. This is all house hundreds of feet inside Granite Mountain in Utah. The atmosphere is climate controlled to preserve the paper documents and micro film inside. 7. Tumen River This serves as a gateway between China, North Korea and Russia. The reason for heightened security along the river is due to many North Koreans have been caught attempting to enter China through the river's shallow waters. 6. Svalbard Global Seed Vault, Norway Have you ever wondered whether or not there is a fail-safe set in place should a worldwide famine or humanitarian disaster occur? If so, then thank your lucky stars for this vault. The purpose is to preserve spare samples of seeds for the purpose of growing food should the need arise. 5. Federal Reserve Bank of New York There are 12 Federal Reserve banks found in the United States, all of which feature some of the most heightened levels of security. Robotics are used in the New York's Reserve's vaults while the outside security force is expertly trained in hand-to-hand combat as well as sharp shooting. 4. Vatican Secret Archives, Italy The storage facility houses a wealth of forms, official documents and ledgers from the Catholic Church. These archives are set apart from the Vatican Library and ownership is passed down from Pope to Pope. 3. The White House, USA The President's home remains one of the most heavily guarded buildings in the world. An iron fence surrounds the property which is fitted with bullet proof windows and a secret service detail devoted to protecting the First Family at all costs. 2. Fort Knox, USA The building houses the bullion reserve of the United States and is one of the most closely guarded places on Earth. Fort Knox is heavily protected at all times by armed guards making it impossible to enter the area unless you were invited of course. 1. Area 51, Nevada, USA This subsection of Edward's Airforce base in Nevada has special use air space and possesses an air of mystery that has captivated people around the world. Motion-triggered sensors surround the perimeter, patrols of armed guards are constantly surveying the grounds and protecting it from outsiders.

There are many places that have been left out of this list. From what I have gathered so far,the many residences of the supreme leader of the DPRK are even more heavily guarded than some of these places. |

Fessy09:Which of these places is being guarded by 25,000 military personnel, not to talk of the top notch,most advanced security equipment available. The Pentagon is the most guarded place on the planet. If you blow up the white house,few Americans die,if you blow up the Pentagon America dies. 3 Likes |

Greatzeus:no doubt the PENTAGON is amongst one of the top secured locations buh keep in mind that the PENTAGON may be accessible to the PUBLIC, via tours, invitations, events, interviews, etc. Area 51 is a High Secured-via Electronic/Physical/Sat Methods- A US Government Air Base Facility, NOT open to the Public, with STK (shoot to kill) standing orders for ANYONE trespassing it’s obvious Marked boundaries. Most staff and workers are flown in Daily from Vegas. 2 Likes |

White House number 3? You know how many times that place has been breached? ASO rock seems more secure to me. Forget the fact that the United States is more advance than Nigeria in terms of technology. 1 Like |
