Leaving a few interesting things I found:

Painting of a village swing (which is the title of the painting) by a Russian artist ([1]).

Different kind of traditional swing in village of Tenganan (also seen at Akha swing festival [2]). Surprisingly, similar one has also been photographed in Estonia (!) -->

Also Akha swings: [3]
Akha people#Akha villages and culture: [...] in most Akha villages is a tall four-posted village swing which is used in an annual ancestor offering related to the fertility of rice. The swing is built annually by an elder called a dzoeuh mah. -- intgr [talk] 23:58, 23 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
