It is common to carry something on top of one's head even around Pysy, Myanmar. Everyone walked around with something on their heads as easy as anything. The woman in this photo was like that, too. She walked with a tray on her head, and there were fruits on the tray. The local people must have a keen sense of balance.

When I see people carrying things above their heads like this, I feel a sense of travel. It's because I don't see people carrying things in this way in Japan. On the other hand, when I traveled in Asia, not only in Myanmar but also in other countries, I often saw people carrying something on his head. I have seen them in Bali, India and Bangladesh. Surprisingly, there are many cultures in which people carry things on their heads.
