Thanks for sharing, @Mazharul_BDLG . My home town was famous for horse races. How many jockeys take part in that race? Since it’s a cultural feature in Bangladesh, I guess there is no gambling connected?

Hello @Mazharul_BDLG ,

Thanks for sharing!

Hungary is famous about horse racing and the Kincsem Park is the oldest place in the country. Kincsem is a world famous horse from the 19th century, who won all the races where he has participated, which means 54.

It’s still super fancy if you go to a race in the Kincsem Park, because it turns you back to the 1800’s.
