It can be a lot of fun to look back and see what life looked like in the past. Modern ages are fun, new technology is interesting, but it is also cool to go back to the world's roots and see how things used to be. The world and society has changed drastically over the past 60 years. In fact, nothing has really stayed the same at all. Everything from the fashion to music to trends to design and everything else has evolved or changed in some way. This fact is both interesting and kind of terrifying.

The 1960s were a revolutionary time in life. The 1960s were also known as the 'swingin' sixties,' which is a pretty perfect name for the decade. There are plenty of films, shows, and a whole lot of music from the 60s that people still enjoy to this day. Media from the '60s is still relevant, events from the decade still have impacts on the world, and society in general left its mark on the planet forever.

So, for those who either want to indulge in some 1960s nostalgia and take a look back on what the old days were like or for anyone who is unfamiliar with the decade and wants to take a peek at what it held, here are 26 throwback photos from the 1960s. This is how people lived 60 years ago.
