Gojunoto Tower: Oldest Wooden Building in the World
Located in Nara, Japan, the Gojunoto Tower of Horyuji Temple is the oldest wooden building in the world. Its center was made of a tree that fell nearby and not one nail was used in its construction. Moreover, the Gojunoto makes use of the special Hinoki to stop decay and mold.
