Sacred White Horse Tour
In the remote and mystical Darkhad Valley of northern Mongolia, the sacred white horses are deeply woven into the spiritual and cultural fabric of the local people. Revered by the Darkhad and Tsaatan (reindeer herders), these rare white horses are believed to possess divine energy and are often associated with shamanic rituals and ancestral spirits. The horses are honored in ceremonies, where shamans invoke their power for blessings, protection, and guidance. Against the backdrop of the valleys and mountains vast alpine meadows, shimmering lakes, and Forrests, these ethereal creatures embody the untamed and mystical soul of Mongolia’s ancient traditions.
