Most traditional constructions in Asia (and to be frank anywhere else in the world) has been with wood, stone and dirt. Steel is only possible since we extract enough iron and burn in with coal, something we're not sure to be able to do at the same price (=rate =quantity) as we did for the last 100years. Still, here's some contemporary "skyscraper":
