Tusi Castle
The ancient Tusi, leader of a minority tribe, had supreme authority. In the Tusi Castle of Yongding in Zhangjiajie, the Tusi built his tallest 48-meter-high, 12-storey stilted building in western Hunan province in order to show his status. The whole building has no iron nail, can be regarded as a miracle in the history of the construction of Tujia stilted buildings. It was included in the Guinness World Records in September 2002, and was identified as the tallest wooden structure stilted building in China. At the same time, the Maugusi dance activity held by a thousand people in the Tusi Castle won the largest one of this kind in Guinness records.
