A farm couople aboard a donkey cart, followed by a loaded hand drawn cart on dirt road some thirty miles from Beijing, China.


Before the turn of the century the bicycle was China's prevalent form of urban transportation. Rural farming regions such as this continued to employ donkey carts and other primitive, motorless vehicles. Since then, with an expanding national economy and a growing affluence for working class families, traditional traditional travel is rapidly being replaced by use of the automobile.
