Recently, Mark Zuckerberg, founder of Meta, the owner of Facebook, built a fortified complex on the island of Kauai in Hawaii. This project includes an underground bunker that some refer to as a design to protect his family in the event of global disasters or crises such as major wars or natural disasters.
The bunker was built deep underground, with an area of 5,000 square feet, and includes many rooms and security privileges. The construction of the bunker in this location may be related to his fear of the effects of political or economic crises that may occur in the future.
He is not the only one who builds underground bunkers. There are a number of wealthy people in the world who have invested in such projects to protect themselves and their families in emergency situations.
Basic project details
The hideaway has 30 bedrooms and 30 bathrooms, as well as recreational facilities such as gyms and swimming pools.
The walls are fortified and explosion-resistant and there is an integrated security system to protect the complex.
The project also includes an independent water source and agricultural facilities to ensure food.
Cost and Financing
The project cost is estimated at about $170 million, which includes land purchase, construction and facility equipment.
Zuckerberg developed this bunker as part of his quest to provide safety for his family in the event of something unexpected happening in the world.
The reason behind these fortifications could be related to many worrying scenarios, whether due to economic crises, world wars, or even epidemics that could threaten the stability of the world.
