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.

  1. 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.

  2. 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.

  3. 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.

  4. 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.

  5. 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.

  6. 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.

  7. 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.

  8. The White House, USA

    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.

  9. 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.

  10. Area 51, Nevada, USA

    Nevada has special use air space and possesses
    an air of mystery that has captivated people
