Iconic Buses Around the World

From London's red double-deckers to Manila's chrome jeepneys, these are the buses people recognize at a glance and travelers go out of their way to ride. Each photo shows one bus type or local tradition, and the test for inclusion is simple: it has to be inseparable from the place it serves, whether through its design, its paint or the way it changed how a city moves. The gallery runs roughly by region, starting in Britain and Europe, crossing the Americas and finishing in Asia and Africa.
