Description
Photograph of the main street in Yeung Kong, China in 1936. Several people walk in the street. One woman, who is close to the camera, carries a pole on her shoulder with two buckets. She wears a typical bowl like hat. Behind her is a man with a large brimmed straw hat. A dog lays by the side of the road. The storefronts are hidden by an arcade-like covering.
