Tengwang Pavilion, completely rebuilt in 1989. Yellow Crane Tower, completely rebuilt in 1981. Temple of Confucius, 1985. A not unsubstantial portion of the Badaling wall section, also. Even a good chunk of Terracotta Warriors have been completely remade from scratch.

But it’s not only in China, of course. Brunswick Palace in Germany. Namdaemun in Korea. Osaka Castle in Japan. It goes on.
