All people on the grassland know how to ride horses, though riding is not as popular as before due to the increasing numbers of automobiles and motorbikes. It is, however, still practiced and preserved on the remote grassland.

The county’s horse race track is located in front of a giant yak tent in the suburb of the county town, where the tourists can ride a horse themselves.

Dondrub Chosang is one of 13 horse-riding businessmen near the giant tent, and also one of the members of the county’s equestrian team.

He has worked here for two years.
