Spanish horse festival 'Rapa das bestas' grows in popularity

Spanish Horse Festival, celebrating what they describe as the noble confrontation between man and horse. The festival dates back to the 15th century and is held every year in the first week of July.

At the celebration, young people from Sabucedo and its surrounding area head to the mountains at dawn. Their goal is to find wild horses living in the area, bring them back to the village and cut their manes.

When night falls, attendees come together to enjoy food, music and wine.
