Cycle Rickshaw

Invented in 1880s, cycle rickshaws are widely used in major cities around the world, but most commonly in cities of South, Southeast & East Asia. They are used primarily for their novelty value, as an entertaining form of transportation for tourists and locals, but they also have environmental benefits and may be quicker than other forms of transport if traffic congestion is high. In November 1991, Pulled & Cycle version of rickshaws were banned in Pakistan – only Auto version remained.
