Mongolia
is probably the most horse riding nation in the world. The life of
a Mongolian revolves around his horse. The Mongolians
spend the greater part of time on the back of their horses, which
belong to a small but resistant and tireless race. More than 2.5 million
horses live in the Mongolian steppe. Horses are bred mainly to supply
the family with their own riding horses.
Mongolians are
given their first horse when they are still children so that they
learn to handle the animals at an early age.
The owner of a big herd of horses can pround , the symbolic value
of possessions is more important than their actual monetary value.
