A horse-drawn carriage in Beijing. Until about 2010, it was normal to see these in the Chinese capital in the summer, bringing fruit and vegetables from the nearby countryside and selling them straight from the cart. On warm weekends, you would see them on many street corners.
And they came all the way to within the Second Ring Road, which was totally within the central center of Beijing. This picture was taken near Dongsi Shitiao in 2009. I lived in that area from 2003 until 2014. I have many fond memories of negotiating with these fine farmers about the price for a jin (0.5 kg) of whatever veggies they carried on their carts.
However, the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games modernization drive meant the end for the horse-drawn carriages within the city center. It was cool for as long as it lasted! Note the Changan-Ford Fiesta sedan in the background.
