Horse festivals are an opportunity for Kyrgyz rural people to get together to celebrate special occasions. The spectators and participants here are getting ready to go home for the night. But many will return for the remaining two days of the festival. The green curtain provides some degree of privacy for small children needing to make a pit stop before setting off.
