Travelling by Mule Litter: A Traditional Chinese Transportation Method from the 1920s (China - Travelling by Mule Litter, circa 1920s) This photograph captures the unique and traditional method of transportation in China during the 1920s - travelling by mule litter. The image shows a mule, laden with a large and ornate wooden litter, making its way along a narrow mountain path. The litter, skillfully balanced on the mule's back, provides shelter and comfort for its passengers as they journey through the rugged terrain. The mule, a sturdy and versatile animal, was a popular choice for transportation in China due to its strength and ability to navigate difficult terrain. The use of mules for transport was particularly common in rural areas, where roads were often non-existent or in poor condition. The passengers, dressed in traditional Chinese clothing, sit comfortably in the litter, shielded from the elements by its high sides and canopy. The driver, dressed in a simple tunic and hat, expertly guides the mule along the path, using a long stick to steer and communicate with the animal. This photograph offers a glimpse into a bygone era, showcasing the resilience and resourcefulness of the Chinese people in the face of challenging conditions. It is a reminder of the rich history and cultural traditions that continue to shape China today.
