RICKSHAW


I am a citizen of Bangladesh and the capital of Bangladesh is Dhaka. Dhaka is called the city of rickshaws. Rickshaw is one of our ancient vehicles. Many of you may be familiar with it. I used to ride a rickshaw to my grand parents' house as a child. This rickshaw is still seen in my area. But now more than ever it is more convenient for the rickshaw-puller.

I don't know about the history of the rickshaw. But since rickshaw is a Japanese word, I think this rickshaw was first invented in Japan. According to the information available on Wikipedia, this assumption is not wrong. It is a tricycle vehicle. It is a human driven vehicle but due to technological advancements it is now made into a mechanized vehicle by installing an electric motor. You can find the image in the ww3world location I have given below, and even anywhere in Bangladesh. The experience of traveling in it will give you utmost satisfaction and pleasure. Rickshaw travel is one of my favorite pastimes. If you have never traveled by rickshaw, I would say you must do it at least once. Two passengers can travel in a rickshaw but four people can also travel if required.

In the 2nd picture you can see its name is wheelbarrow. It has been used for transportation of goods in our country and region since ancient times. This wheelbarrow has many uses. This vehicle is most commonly used in field to crop harvesting operations. It is also used to carry various heavy goods like bricks, wood pieces from one place to another place.
