Beast of a polo tournament

The annual King’s Cup Polo Tournament was held in Bangkok, Thailand from 10th – 13th March. It was a fascinating sight to watch the big beasts taking to the grassy field chasing after a white ball with a kwan chang – a mahout – and a player perched on top engaged in a highly competitive polo game. The tournament was held by the banks of Bangkok’s mighty Chaophraya River, near Anantara Riverside Bangkok Resort, one of the exotic luxury Bangkok resorts providing a range of spectacular games and fun for entire family. The extremely popular tournament is one of the biggest charitable events in whole of Southeast Asia to better the lives of Thailand’s wild and domesticated elephant population and is mainly organised by Anantara Hotels, Resorts & Spas.
