Some of the most visited, most celebrated landmarks on Earth are standing directly on top of something. And I don't just mean bedrock. I'm talking about history that someone, at some point, decided was much better off buried. A cathedral smashed straight through a mosque to send a message. A gleaming capital city built by political prisoners. A theme park sitting on land that used to be a thriving neighborhood before the bulldozers rolled in. The landmarks survived. The history didn't. At least, not in the official brochures. These are 25 massive landmarks built to bury dark historical secrets.
