From childhood,  have always been drawn to and favoured horses.\nOn the tour I was able to photograph horses in their special relationship with Inner\nMongolians. It is clear that Inner Mongolians are at one with respect and\nlove for their horses. During the thirteenth century, Mongolian horses were\nused by Genghis Khan as they were effective warhorses and, as needed,\nwere useful as meat and milk for the warriors. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Without question, Mongolian horses are\nbeautiful. They are stocky, healthy, strong, long-living and can be seen on the\nvast Mongolian grasslands and mountainous regions. It is such a thrilling sight\nto witness in the late afternoon a herd of horses led by a flag streaming\nmotorbike gallop down from the rise of grasslands to the farm for feed, rest,\nwash and a check-over by stable hands. Both Inner Mongolian people and Mongolian\nhorses share character that makes their intermingling noble, proud and\ndeserving of respect. It is reassuring that the wild spirit of both\nspecies survive in warm and productive harmony.   <\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
