What are the ancient tourist equipment?

In ancient times, people's means of transportation and travel equipment were relatively limited, but they still managed to create travel tools that adapted to various environments and needs. The following are some travel equipment commonly used by ancient people:

1. Carriage: One of the most common means of transportation in ancient times. Carriage can be divided into different types according to its use and luxury, such as civil carriage, freight carriage and aristocratic carriage. Carriage can make people span a long distance in a short time, so it has high practical value in ancient long-distance travel.

2. Walking: Walking is the main way for ancient people to travel. Although the walking speed is slow, the cost is low and the terrain adaptability is strong. Therefore, walking is very popular in short-distance and exploratory travel.

3. Sedan chair: a common means of transportation for ancient nobles and wealthy businessmen. Sedan chairs are carried by bearers and are usually ornately decorated to show their status and wealth. Sedan chair can alleviate the fatigue of travel to a certain extent, but its speed and flexibility are low.

4. Boat: People in ancient rivers, lakes and coastal areas used boats as their main means of transportation. Ships can be used to transport goods, carry people or travel on water. Ancient ships may not be as advanced as modern ships, but they meet people's traffic needs to some extent.

5. Riding: Riding is another way for ancient people to travel. For travelers, riding a horse can travel a long distance in a short time, and at the same time, it is also very adaptable to the terrain. In ancient times, riding a horse may be an important skill, because it has practical value in many occasions.

6. Hiking backpack: Ancient hikers usually carried a simple backpack to store food, water, clothes and other necessities. The size and function of backpacks vary according to individual needs and travel purposes.

7. Carry-on luggage: In ancient times, people would carry some carry-on luggage, such as clothes, books, tools and other personal items. These luggage can be made of natural materials, such as hides, wood or bamboo.

Although the travel equipment of ancient people was not as rich and varied as that of modern people, they still managed to overcome various difficulties and completed many long-distance trips. To some extent, these travel equipment reflected the scientific and technological level and social and cultural characteristics at that time.
