The Botafumeiro is one of the largest and most famous incense burners in the world, suspended from the dome of the Santiago de Compostela Cathedral in Spain. Weighing 53 kg (which rises up to 80 kg with coal and incense), it swings at speeds of up to 68 km/h during solemn religious ceremonies.
Via: After hundreds of miles, you arrive in Santiago and realize that the road was never just about the destination. https://x.com/willow_wwhimsy/status/2061475096997630226
