Tbourida
Tbourida is an ancient equestrian art in Morocco, dating back to the 16 century AD. It is a military parade performed by teams of cavalry and organized according to ancient rituals derived from the Arab and Berber ancestors.
Shows include maneuvers with guns, a simulation of war in which knights wear traditional costumes and accessories representing their tribes and regions. Moroccans pass this heritage on from generation to generation through families and through tradition.
Tbourida was inscribed in 2021 on the UNESCO Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity in Morocco.
