Horse RIDING DISPLAYS

Andalusia offers some stunning and unique equestrian displays, which you will most likely not be able see anywhere else in the world, and what better than visiting this richly endowed region for a sneak peek into the importance of the horse in Andalusian culture.

Real Escuela Andaluza del Arte Ecuestre
Probably the most famous of all, the Real Escuela Andaluza del Arte Ecuestre (Royal Andalusian School of Equestrian Art) offers a spectacular display known as "Como Bailan Los Caballos Andaluces", translated to "How Andalusian Horses Dance". The exhibition is an authentic equestrian ballet with Spanish music and eighteenth century costumes, based on choreography drawn from dressage, "vaquera" (working style of equitation) and other traditional horse riding disciplines. Each performance has six to eight choreographies, all maintaining the same level and unique style, programmed by the Institution. Similar to the Spanish Riding School in Vienna, it is not to be missed!

Performances take place at the riding school, adjacent to the historic nineteenth century Palacio de las CadenasMore>
