A horse-drawn carriage in Beijing. Until about 2010 it was quite normal to see these in the capital in summer, bringing in fruit and vegetables from the nearby countryside and selling it straight from the cart. On warm these in the weekends you could see them on many a street corner.
And they came all they way to within the Second Ring Road! This picture was taken near Dongsi Shitiao in 2009. Sadly, today horse carts are no longer allowed inside the capital. Note the Changan-Ford Fiesta sedan in the background!
