What is the width of ox cart?
The width of the ancient ox cart is about 1.7 meters, and the ox cart, as its name implies, is a cart pulled by an ox. It is difficult to see ox carts in cities and rural areas now. However, in the long river of history, ox carts once played a very important role. According to "Historical Records", ox carts originated very early, with a history of more than 2,000 years.

With the gradual development of modern means of transportation, automobiles, ships, subways, high-speed trains, and airplanes have appeared one after another, and bullock carts have almost disappeared. But even the most backward things will return to the rivers and lakes under certain circumstances. In the middle of last century, ox carts appeared on the banks of Qiantang River at Zheshanwu Ferry.

For decades, there have been cattle tugboats in the sand area, pulling boats with cattle and carrying goods in shallow bays. Maybe that's when the ox cart was inspired. Cattle can be tugged, and of course they can also be tugged, so Sandman also calls the ox cart an ox trailer. People in the sand area don't need Niu Gengdi, and they don't have the habit of raising cattle. The cow is an old cow from other places. In the past, there were no ox carts in the sand area, so ox carts were made by feeling.
