A 99-year-old woman in Kuitun, the Xinjiang Uygur autonomous region, enjoys being pushed around by her partially disabled son throughout the city.

Li Erxiang's 67-year-old son, Duan Tiechui, made the cart and takes his mother everywhere.

"Although my hand and leg were disabled, I want to give happiness to my mother and I like to carry her in the cart to see the streetscape," Duan said.

Duan's left hand and leg were injured during an accident when he was just 30 and his wife died in 1980.
