Our «heavenly» horses, bred over centuries on the ancient Turkmen land and having become a universal treasure, are considered among the best purebred horses in the world. They have become the joy of our people and close friends thanks to their devotion to their master, beauty, speed, endurance, and are the wings of the nation and the pride of our hearts.
The Turkmen people have a rich cultural heritage. The world-famous Ahal-teke horses and the Turkmen art of horse breeding occupy a worthy place among the priceless treasures of the nation. The Ahal-teke horse breed, bred in Turkmenistan, is a unique symbol of amazing harmony, beauty, and grace, created by nature, as well as human labour and intellect. Their beauty and speed captivate everyone who sees them.
The Turkmen people carefully preserve their horses as the pride of their hearts and an inexhaustible source of joy. In his book, «The Ahal-teke horses - our pride and glory», Hero-Arkadag notes that the Ahal-teke horse, born from the nature of ancient Turkmen history and the unique talent of a hard-working people, has managed to surpass all breeds of riding horses and embody the equestrian art of the world.
These deeply meaningful lines reflect the tireless work of folk and Turkmen horse breeders in creating such a sublime work of art as the Ahal-teke horse.
