Horses Race in Nepal to Keep Demons Away

In this March 24, 2019, photo, a horse rolls on the ground in play days before Ghode Jatra festival in Kathmandu, Nepal. The “Ghode Jatra” is an annual horse festival celebrated on the Nepal Cavalry grounds in Kathmandu, which marks the defeat of a Hindu demon. The president of Nepal, diplomats, top officials and civilians all gather to watch 106 horses and more than 200 soldiers display warfare techniques which are believed to keep the demon away. The preparations of this event start three months prior, when a dedicated team of soldiers spend days bonding with the animals, by feeding and grooming the horses.
