ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Sawar

Okay kiddo, so have you ever seen a horse race? You know how the jockeys ride their horses really fast and try to be the first one to cross the finish line?

Well, in some countries like India and Pakistan, there is a festival called Sawar, or Sawaari. During this festival, people decorate their horses with really pretty jewellery and colourful fabrics. The riders also wear beautiful traditional clothes.

They all gather together and have a horse race! The horses run really fast and the rider who crosses the finish line first is the winner. It's a really exciting and fun tradition.

And that's all you need to know about Sawar, little one.
