On November, 2 and 3 the «Kyivan Rus Park» invites everybody to a grandiose event of autumn – the International horse martial arts festival «The Scythians».
The key event of the Festival will be the International horseback archery Championship. The best horseback archers from all over the world, including Turkey, Poland, Austria, Finland, Canada, Kuwait and Ukraine will take part in the competition.
The experienced sportsmen-virtuosos from different countries will compete in the traditional (historical) bow shooting accuracy on a horseback at full gallop. It is an incredibly difficult task for the competition participants and, at the same time, a thrilling spectacle for the viewers.
Also the guests of the Principality will see the demonstrative performances of actors-stuntmen of the horse-trick theatre on the virtuoso possession of different medieval weapon: swords, spears and sulitsas.
The sportsmen and the actors-stuntmen will perform in a tandem with the unique horses of historical breeds gathered from all over the world in the Princely stable. Some of these horses can be seen nowhere else in Ukraine because they were brought to our country in a single number. The horses can be palmed, taken a photo with, ridden on a horseback or in a carriage.
The guests of the Principality will be not only the viewers of the festival but will get a chance to become the active participants of the event and join the merry and interesting games, contests, Slavic amusements, fiery round dances and dance flash mobs.
