Goju-no-to Pagoda, Japan

The five-story Goju-no-to Pagoda on Miyajima Island was built in 1407 and is the oldest wooden tower in the world. The architectural style of this Buddhist shrine is a mix of Japanese and Chinese influences, and features a Japanese tiled roof. It was built as a symbolic tomb where a relic of Buddha is placed. The first floor contains an ancient drawing of Buddha on his death bed. The shrine was named a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1993. It is closed to the public.
