We know Giza and Egypt probably comes on top of your mind when you think about pyramids. But, it’s not in Giza neither is it in Egypt ☹️
The biggest pyramid in the world by volume is located in Cholula de Rivadavia, Mexico. Over time, nature did its job and camouflaged it with soil, grass and other vegetation, so it was not easy to spot it and to see what lies beneath the hill at its location. The Great Pyramid of Cholula is only 54 m (177 ft) tall, but with a base four time larger than the Great Pyramid at Giza, having a volume of 166k ft³ (3.3 million m³) compared to the 84k ft³ (2.4 million m³) of the Pyramid of Khufu. According to BBC it’s also the largest monument on earth ever built by humans.
