Ox carts from Malaysia


I've seen horse drawn carriages lining up in front of tourist attractions in many places but here we have ox carts.  According to the back of the card, "In Malacca, visitors can take a bullock cart ride, directly in front of the Orang Asli Museum". 

They look very picturesque and beautifully tended, both the carts and the animals.  The sender of the card told me that they are still commonly seen in smaller villages.  Possibly not quite so ornately decorated, I should think.

  1. I'd quite like to visit Malaysia one day. I've met a couple of people in London from Malaysia and from what they have told me, it is culturally rich and naturally beautiful.
