The Urinals of Gas Station

This gas station may be found along the road between Baoding and Yi Shan, in Hebei province, China


This picture was sent in by KW. He writes: "In the rural parts of China, flush toilets of any type are almost unknown. This men's room is typical. When photographing the urinal, I chose to leave the cigarette packet in place, as it gives a sense of scale (and as it was also soggy). The concrete trench to the left is one of three for defecation: don't expect privacy in this part of the world."
