Polo in Mongolia

ULAAN BAATAR, MONGOLIA - JULY 30: Young Polo players practice their skills on an improvized polo pitch July 30, 2005 in the orkhon valley polo camp. The poorest polo players in the world live and play in Mongolia where the game has been played for centuries. Whether stories of Genghis Khan?s troops playing polo with the enemy?s head for a ball are apocryphal or not, the sport certainly flourished in the great Mongol warrior?s extensive empire.
