This cathedral is made of bread

"It's a testament to the city's history." 5/10/19

A Pilgrimage to the Bread Cathedral

An ornate cathedral made of bread rises in the tiny Sicilian town of San Biagio every year at Easter. You'll also spot cereal and pasta embedded in the ornate structure full of arches made by the town's residents, who are carrying on a tradition that goes back to ancient times. While you might be tempted to sink your teeth into it, you should know the cathedral is not, in fact, edible. It's a feast for the eyes only.

The DIY Astronaut

Since he was a kid, Cameron Smith has always known he was destined for space. His plan to get there, however, was unconventional. The archaeologist decided to build his own DIY spacesuit, ascend in a hot air balloon and test out his creation at 63,000 feet—the point at which no human can survive without a pressurized environment.

Marco is a master of a dying art—kneading the dough for bamboo noodles with a bamboo pole. It's physically tiring, but Marco says the technique makes noodles that are chewier, springier and tastier.

Filling a Void

Devastated by the tragic death of his 16-year-old son from a motorcycle accident, Dadarao decided he would do something about Mumbai's notoriously damaged roads. He's filled more than 600 potholes to date, and his work is far from finished.
