10. Mahendraparvata
For hundreds of years, one of the Khmer Empire’s first capitals, was lost beneath the dense Cambodian jungle. Artifacts suspected to originate from the city turned up every now and again for over 150 years, but it wasn’t until 2018 that the location of the city was finally confirmed!!

9. Maya Palace
Early this year, the Mexican National Institute of Anthropology and History (INAH) announced the discovery of a Maya stone palace dating back more than 1,000 years. Discovered in the jungle at the Kulubá archaeological site in Mexico’s northeast Yucatán Peninsula it is located just 100 miles (160 km) west of Cancún. The palace is part of a large complex surrounded by numerous other buildings, which archaeologists have spent years excavating and restoring.

8. Garden Of Bomarzo
The Garden of Bomarzo, also called the Sacro Bosco, or Sacred Grove, and the Park of the Monsters, or Parco dei Mostri, is located in the province of Viterbo in Italy’s Lazio region. Built 500 years ago during the Late Renaissance it is overgrown with trees.

7. Sigiriya
One of Sri Lanka’s most popular tourist destinations is Sigiriya, an ancient rock fortress built during the fifth century. Cut into a massive rock column nearly 660 feet (200 meters) tall, it contains a series of passageways, as well as a set of enormous lion’s paws carved into the base -- features that are fitting for the name Sigiriya, which means “lion’s rock.”

6. Lost Mountain Temple
Stone constructions estimated to be over 1,000 years old were discovered in late 2019 in Nakhon Si Thammarat, a municipality in southern Thailand. Historian Phum Jiradejwong and his team, called the “explorers of the City of Mountains,” made the alleged find, which he believes represents the ruins of an ancient city that was first mentioned over a millennium ago by a Chinese explorer.

5. A SECRET GERMAN VILLAGE
La Cumbrecita, a Swiss-German village in the hills of Argentina, looks strikingly out-of-place with its German street signs, giant cuckoo clock that greets entering visitors, and restaurants that sell traditional German cuisine. The town’s roots date back to 1932, when a German migrant couple living in Buenos Aires, named the Cabjolskys, began seeking an ideal location for their vacation home.

4. Mayan Megacity
In early 2018, scientists discovered tens of thousands of Maya buildings and structures, including houses, defense works, pyramids, agricultural fields, and irrigation systems in the thick Guatemalan jungle. Based on the new findings, they estimate that up to 10 million people once lived throughout the region, known as the Maya Lowlands.

3. The Lost “City Of The Monkey God”
An early 2015 research expedition to Honduras led to the discovery of a lost city belonging to a mysterious, previously unknown culture. Long-standing rumors of a so-called “White City,” also called the “City of the Monkey God,” and aerial mapping images led the archaeologists into the remote, uninhabited region in the Mosquitia rainforest, where they found extensive plazas, mounds, earthworks, and an earthen pyramid.

2. NAZI HIDEOUT
In March 2015, the Argentine press reported that archaeologists from the University of Buenos Aires discovered the suspected remains of a World War II era Nazi hideout that was perhaps built as a last-ditch refuge for German officials as the war came to an end.

1. EL MIRADOR
El Mirador, a “lost” Mayan city that once served as the civilization’s flourishing capital, was discovered in 1926 in the subtropical rainforest of Guatemala. Its ruins are located within the 2,475-square-mile (6,410 km2) Mirador basin, and were built over 2,000 years ago.
