Preserve preservers
The famous centerpiece of Efteling theme park in Kaatsheuvel, Netherlands, is the Pagode. The circling structure gently rises 45 meters (150 feet) into the sky for panoramic views of the park and the neighboring nature preserve.

Which is a good thing for the nature preserve. More than a dozen times every season, the staff operating the Pagode have spotted smoke in the forest and sent alarms to the local fire department.
