Breaking: The Humen Bridge in Guangdong province was closed Tuesday afternoon after it started to shake dangerously. Surveillance footage circulating online shows the bridge shakes like a wave. Local traffic police said the shaking was caused by strong wind.

The portable bun that fed soldiers 500 years ago is still made today. (via Atlas Obscura)

Goose barnacles are some of the most valuable shellfish in China—and some of the most dangerous to harvest. They can only be picked wild and during low tide. Choose the wrong time, and the ocean could sweep you away. We met some fishermen in Yangyu, a small island off the east coast of China, who make a living off collecting shellfish.
