I feel sorry for the horses TIT

Wow 2 buses of tourists. I was there a few weeks ago. Saw 2 farangs and hardly any Chinese. Most of the horse guys were sitting around.

 

 

Pretty sure they have horse and carts - probably millions more - in China. Like going to Thailand to enjoy Thai food and having a hamburger

Nihao ma comrades, saved! 

Can't they find something better to do?

Ride hailing horse drawn carriage service "Bolt" attempted to provide rides, but were unable to control their animals.

Mainland Chinese and Twaniese Chinese ... OK, just curious if traveling together will result in any political dialogue.

Been in that regio this y and they really not take good care for their horses. When no have peoples for a ride they let the horses standing in full sunshine without me see even a bucket of water. One man did an attempt by park the horse near a tree so the horse had 40cm of shade.

 

But for the visitors, i counted maybe 20 peoples at the moment we were there, they had many tents for shades.
