Toledo, Castile-La Mancha, Spain

The Feast of the Assumption falls on August 15, and it seems like all of Toledo descends on the cathedral. After the mass is celebrated by the 'Primate of All Spain,' parishoners partake of the 'miracle water' from the cathedral's spring. Jugs are filled and refilled, passed from one to another, and never a lip do they touch. Actually, it's harder than you think. [2009]
