A family on Sunday

Date: 1983

Location: Xinjiekouwai in Xicheng district

In the 1980s, the working system in China stipulated employees could get only one day off each week. So Sunday was very important for citizens who usually spent the day doing chores, visiting families and friends or taking their children to play outside. The photo shows a family of three, with the mother and father on a bicycle and their child on a buggy pulled by the mother's hand.
