100 Years Old Vintage Photographs Of ‘Human-Powered’ Transportation In Japan
The transportation methods people use today are much
convenient and different from the methods used in 1900s. If we look back in the
history there were many old school ways that people used to get from one place
to another. Most of the pre-historic method of transportation consisted of swimming
and walking. With the passage of time men have made a rapid development in the
field of transportation.
To show you the human-powered transportation in Japan in the
early 1900s, we have put together a wonderful collection of vintage photographs
best highlighting the transportation of this time. It was a much simpler time
and the only method of transportation was in existence called human-powered’
transportation, including ‘man-drawn’ carriages and Jinrikisha (rickshaw) that is
still in use in some parts of Tokyo.
