How Can a Cathedral Built From Trash Look So Beautiful?



Don Justo has been building this beautiful cathedral of trash for 50-odd years now, and is almost finished. Since he left his life as a monk 50 years ago and began building the cathedral (which is modelled on St. Peter's in Italy, along with the White House and other cathedrals and churches), he's built it up to 131-feet high, and just needs to add a roof and a few windows. Most of his building matter came from salvaged materials and junk, which he built up on his own land over 8,000sq/m with his own two hands.
