Todaiji Temple - Great Buddha Hall
Since its foundation in the 8th century, it has been destroyed by fire twice, and then rebuilt in the 13th century and the 18th century. In the 18th century, a sufficient supply of materials to construct the pillars could not be secured, and other materials were used to enclose the center of the pillars and iron rivets and hoops were used to fasten pillars. Also, the frontage was originally 86 meters wide when it was built, but it was reconstructed at 57 meters. It is still one of the biggest wooden structures in the world, and one can imagine its grandeur in the days of old.
