Ciudad Al-ManSur

Falconry Exhibition.

 

Falconry, especially mounted falconry, was one of the favourite pastimes of the Andalusi court and subsequently inherited by the nobility of the Moorish kingdoms.

This art of hunting practised with birds of prey acquired immense importance in the Islamic East and West.

At Ciudad Al-ManSur, this magnificent exhibition will be given by falconers on horseback and on foot who will skilfully demonstrate to the audience the perfect symbiosis between man and animal.

Caliph Abd al-Rahman III was a magnificent rider and falconry lover.

According to Arab tradition, the falconer is the victorious rider who triumphs with the help of his faith over other corrupt animals.
