The Naadam
I'll never forget my visit to the Mongolia city of UB.I decided to go at the beginning of July,when tne local people have their Naadam.Every year ,between 11th and 13th May.It starts parade of Naadam.
There are 3main competitions;horse racing ,wrestling and archery.On the first day of festival,wrestling.Mongolian wrestlers wear special costume.It consist of a hat,small short,vest with long sleeves and boots.Horse racing,people choose the best and fastest horses.
On the last day of festival ,colt racing and to celebrate people train a horse for race's holiday.
All people wear national clothes deel during Naadam.
In the Naadam,people drink airag and eat huushuur.
It made me feel sad to think that i would leave for UB the next day,but i knew that the memories of the Naadam festival would stay with me forover.
