I also would have added the Sydney Opera House and maybe something by Frank Lloyd Wright. I’ve never heard of the hanging temple in China … great find!

We have spent time at many of the sites you have listed, but still have many more to visit! I love the idea of a "preservation vacation", as Jamie mentioned. Another term to search for is "cultural travel", which returns many options for exploring sites like those listed above. What a wonderful list!

Youll be helping save the worlds architectural heritage, doing meaningful, hands-on work at sites ranging from World Heritage Sites and (US) National Historic Landmarks to significant vernacular structures.
