Horses have contributed a lot to human society. They were used as draft animals in the olden days and were even used in wars. One of the main means of transportation back then were horses. It is believed that horses which are considered wild animals were tamed and trained about 4,000 years ago. They have been a partner and friend to humans since then. There are now many different breeds of horses because of their exposure to humans. Some breeds are used for racing while others are bred for specific tasks.

A festival is an event ordinarily celebrated by a community and centering on some characteristic aspect of that community and its religion or culture. This constitutes typical cases of glocalization, as well as the high culture-low culture interrelationship. Festivals often serve to fulfill specific communal purposes, especially in regard to commemoration or thanking to the gods, goddesses or saints: they're called patronal festivals. They may also provide entertainment, which was particularly important to local communities before the advent of mass-produced entertainment.
