10 Most Heavily Guarded Places In The World by Wayne4uall(m): 4:38pm On Jan 20, 2021 |
1. Havenco Limited. Located approximately six miles from the coast of Suffolk, southeast England. It is situated on the top of large concrete pillars in the middle of the North sea. Most of you might not have even heard of them. It is almost impossible to reach this place. It is a hyper-secure data fortress. Almost nobody, except those who work there, know exactly what kind of information they protect. The most surprising thing is, it ended all its operations in 2008, without even giving an explanation.

8. Area 51 This place is so protected that even its exact location in not known. Area 51 is one of the most popular names on the list. Some say it’s located in Nevada, while others think, it’s in California. Even if you fly unknowingly over this area, then be ready for some extraordinary punishments. Security measures include sensors planted around the perimeter of the base. These sensors detect movement, and some believe they can even discern the difference between an animal and a human being. Nobody knows what exactly goes on there. 1 Share

Antarctica should also be on the list. Travel to Antarctica is strictly controlled under the Antarctic Treaty which aims to protect the area for peace and scientific research. The 53 countries under the treaty, including USA and New Zealand, conduct operations on the ice of which majority of work is carried out by the military or contractors. Majority of air travel into the area/continent is also military-run. 2 Likes

Wayne4uall: Now, where have I seen that offshore platform before... Yes! Sealand. It is a territory of the Principality of Sealand. The platform(originally called Roughs Tower) itself was built as a defensive tower during World War II by the British government before it was abandoned. That was when a crazy man and later his equally crazy son landed on it and claimed it as the territory of their sovereign State- the Principality of Sealand. That was years before this company came to set up operations on their 'territory'. As a matter fact, the company's flag and Sealand's flag look very much alike. If you don't study micronations in your spare time, then you won't understand what I'm getting at. |

Wayne4uall:. The info in this place ehnn. Could remember the allegation placed on one Pope by workers in the vatican then. That he was planning to release an old long secret to the world. A secret that could kill religion and probably send man back to the stone age. . . |

Wayne4uall: Got to know about this place after watching The Caretaker (Season 3 Episode 16), an episode of The Blacklist. One would imagine, what kind of secrets are there and how important are they to need this kind of security. |
