Horses & Dogs: Man’s Eternal Companions 🐎🐕
When we think of man’s best friend, dogs naturally come to mind. Their loyalty, intelligence, and companionship have made them inseparable from human life. But alongside them, another noble creature has stood the test of time—the horse.
For thousands of years, horses have carried warriors into battle, farmers to their fields, and travelers across vast landscapes. They have pulled carts, plowed lands, and galloped through history as symbols of strength, endurance, and trust. Unlike machines, horses do not just serve; they bond, understand, and connect with humans in profound ways.
And in Nepal, this deep bond is celebrated every year through Ghode Jatra—the festival of horses. A grand spectacle in Kathmandu, it is believed to have originated as a way to ward off evil spirits. Today, it stands as a testament to the enduring legacy of horses in Nepali culture, showcasing their agility, power, and the unbreakable connection between man and horse.
Let’s honor the spirit of Ghode Jatra and celebrate the magnificent bond we share with these incredible companions! 🎉🐎
