From a story of an eternal tree to an eternal legend. . . Come listen to an unforgettable tale of a man and his horse!
This story comes from Rajasthan, a land that is part desert and part mountainous. The many clans of Rajputs who live in this inhospitable land are as fierce as the sun that beats down on them and as strong as the Aravalli mountains that run along the state's eastern boundary. They bring colour and life to an otherwise barren land.
Nearly a thousand years ago, the clan of Rathores moved into Maru Pradesh or Land of Death as the region of Marwar was then called. There they found one of the greatest treasures of all times — the Marwari horse. Do you know that it is one of five indigenous horse breeds of India? Well, on with my story. The beauty, spirit, intelligence and loyalty of the horse amazed the new settlers; they went about the business of breeding them. In a few hundred years, Rathores and other Rajputs had an impressive cavalry of over 50,000 men. From then on began the great romance of Rajput warriors and their marwaris.
