CHINA-ANHUI-HUANGSHAN-HEAVER (CN)

Heaver Wu Xiaofu climbs the stairs with heavy loads on his shoulder at the Huangshan Mountain scenic area in Huangshan City, east China's Anhui Province, Sept. 30, 2018. Wu Xiaofu, 53 years old, has been working as a heaver for 18 years. His work is to convey loads of supplies, usually weighing over 50 kilograms, with a bamboo pole over his shoulders from the foot of the Huangshan Mountain up to hotels and shops on the top of the mountain. According to Wu, climbing the mountain with heavy loads on shoulders requires not only much body strength but also a good command of pace and speed. To be even busier during holidays, heavers like Wu Xiaofu will continue to contribute to the tourism industry of Huangshan Mountain through their hard work.(Xinhua/Zhang Duan)
