How about trees that consume structures? I'm not sure which trees these are - likely known as Ficus gibbosa which I think has officially been changed to Ficus tinctoria ssp gibbosa (but a Google search will turn up more images under the old name) or perhaps Ceiba pentandra. Likely both are seen in the photos, but I'm not informed enough to know which is which. In any case, my photos were taken at Ta Prohm temple in Cambodia which has been left as is. The stone structures are huge and seeing the trees growing and tearing them apart was fascinating to me.
