World Equestrian Games - Never a Boring Moment in Kentucky
There is so much to do in Kentucky, and if you are amongst the hundreds of thousands of people who intend to attend the first ever American hosting of the FEI World Equestrian Games in Lexington, you will find that there is never dull moment for anybody here in the Bluegrass State.
Kentucky horse heritage is long and proud, from Thoroughbreds to Quarter horses and every four legged phenomenon in between, and traces of it can be seen in almost every town and city throughout the region.
The home of such legendary and historically significant equine heroes as Man O' War and Exterminator, though the list of champions goes on for literally miles, Kentucky is the perfect maiden location for the largest and most coveted equine event venue in the world.
Aside from the world games, coming in September of 2010, visitors to the Lexington area enjoy many historical and factual sights and tours, including the multiple museum and stable forums at the Kentucky Horse Park.
This is where Man O' War is buried, and is also where the largest horse museum in the country is located.
There are also tours of some of the oldest and most respected thoroughbred farms in Kentucky, some still in operation today.
Read up on all of the most amazing and steadfast race facts and statistics over the past 100 plus years, or even about the Godolphin Arabian whose blood lines helped to start it all.
There are also the Great Smokey and Appalachian Mountain terrains to explore and enjoy, as well as countless roadside and national park destinations where families can relax and take in their beautiful southern surroundings.
The state of Kentucky is like a wonderland of nature combined with some of the most exhilarating and inspiring sporting events known to man.
Whether night life is your cup of tea, or you prefer to dine quietly and absorb the cultures around you while relaxing, the Lexington area has exactly the right experiences for you.
If you are interested in home rental during the 2010 FEI World Equestrian Games, there are many resources at your disposal, and arrangements can be made as soon as you determine the events and dates through which you will attend.
Remember to check out the official Alltech FEI website for complete ticket, admission, scheduling, and venue information and updates.
As the countdown to this prestigious competition ticks down, travel accommodations and lodging options will quickly dissipate.
