This is the village of Lipica, in Slovenia.
It's home to a very special breed of horse - the Lipizzaner.
The animals are often called 'dancing horses'.
They can perform dressage, which looks like dancing.
The breed was introduced in the Hapsburg Empire, in the sixteenth century.
People came together in the village for the Lipizzaner farm's 443rd anniversary.
They were celebrating something else too - UNESCO's now recognised the importance of this cultural tradition as well.
Miro Dragic is the head of the riders' team here at Lipica.
The animals are well-known for being white, but the babies or 'foals' are born black.
They turn white at the age of 4, when the training begins.
The best animals are picked out to join the dressage teams.
Dragic believes that understanding each horse is of great importance.
Just one Lipizzaner's worth several hundred thousand euros.
For Laura Highlander, it's been her dream to see these horses.
Lipica village has given its name to the Lipizzaners.
It feels right to celebrate these amazing horses here.
