On Tuesday, ET reported that Michael Jackson will be buried on what was to be his 51st birthday: August 29. Now, we have the latest on his final resting place.

The King of Pop will be buried at Holly Terrace in the Great Mausoleum at Glendale Forest Lawn Memorial Park in Glendale, CA, on Saturday, August 29 at 10 a.m.

"The Great Mausoleum in Glendale is sort of the Holy Grail of graves," Scott Michaels of Dearly Departed Tours tells ET. "It is a gorgeous, huge building filled with enormous hallways and gothic archways."

Jackson will be put to rest in great company. The Great Mausoleum is also where stars such as W.C. Fields and Clark Gable are interred.

"When I went into the great mausoleum for the first time, and passed the security check, I was really amazed at the sight of the hallway in front of me. It was literally like walking into 'The Wizard of Oz' and at the end of it was going to be the wizard," Michaels says.

That said, fans won't be able to see it for themselves, or visit Jackson. The only visitors allowed in the mausoleum are property owners and family members.

"When you go into the Great Mausoleum, there is literally a gate keeper," Michaels concludes.
