White Dragon Spire
A giant spire with a statue of a dragon (Known as the Dragon of Spirit) crawling up it built around the time dragons were leaving and taking magic with them. It was an offering for dragons to return to the Mainlands.
It could've worked, but the dragons refused it for it not being good enough, and knowing it was only created with the pretense of getting magic back. The dragons cast some sort of spell onto the spire that only other dragons and others adept in dragon language could decipher, and promptly took their leave.
After a couple centuries the Maintenace of the spire ceased and slowly deteriorated, but they are still worshiped as they are
They are now a part of different cultures that worship and pray to the shrines in hopes the dragons would heed their summons (since it's assumed dragons have long distance telepathy connected to the shrines because of the spell)
This is one of a few Dragon Spires, based around different tribes of dragons and their own deities to appeal to said tribes of dragon

History
At the beginning, there was a lot of discussion on the execution of building the spire, debating what would work best without asking to keep it as a (hopefully) pleasant surprise.
After showing it to the dragons, they didn't appreciate it and cast a mysterious spell on it that no one seemed to know what it did or what it said.
The ones who built the spire continued to make slight changes and fixing any inaccuracies in case the dragons returned earlier and changed their mind, wanting to keep the spire in it's best condition. Eventually, this stopped and was left to erode
Nowadays it's one of many dragon worshipping sites
Tourism
Dragon Fanatics willing to spend their time and energy trying to call to dragons visit regularly
Tourists would view it as a relic of the past that shows the efforts made to get magic back, usually as fieldtrips
