Your proposed rule edit for Palácio de Cristal has been reviewed. The submitted source supports the claim that the Palácio de Cristal is a historical heritage site, which may be subject to airspace restrictions under DECEA instruction ICA 100-40. However, the proposed outline appears to be a small circle (100 m radius). A moderator should confirm it covers a real rule area and is not just a token circle.

Before
After
The Palácio de Cristal is a prominent historic structure located in the mountain city of Petrópolis. Originally inspired by the Crystal Palace in London, this glass-and-iron pavilion serves as a major cultural and tourism hub for the region. Because it is a highly delicate architectural structure listed under historical preservation frameworks, the immediate perimeter is strictly protected against unauthorized drone flights to prevent physical impact or structural damage. Operating a drone in this area carries severe risks due to the fragile nature of the glass panels and the frequent public events hosted on the grounds. In addition to heritage protection rules, the surrounding urban layout features dense tree canopies and overhead utility lines that can disrupt line-of-sight operations and degrade GPS signal stability. Under DECEA instruction ICA 100-40, unauthorized operations over heritage sites and densely crowded public squares are subject to immediate penalties, equipment seizure, and fines.
