Description
In a dark stable under a heaving highway in Indonesia's capital, trucks rumble past emaciated carriage horses tied to pillars in ramshackle wooden stalls, their ribs protruding.
The steeds are used to pull traditional wooden carriages known as delman, once a staple of colonial-era transportation, but fading from view in Jakarta in an era dominated by ride-hailing apps.
Now limited to just a few areas of the city, only several hundred delman horses remain to ferry tourists on weekends or public holidays. IMAGES AND SOUNDBITES ARRANGED IN SEQUENCES
