The Golden Eagle Festival is celebrated in Altai near Olgii. This festival represents the prestigious Kazakh culture, and it attracts a large number of visitors every year due to the magnificent sights that it offers. Even below are some of the reasons why one would need to witness the amazing Golden Eagle Festival: -

●The opening ceremony of this festival features the introduction of all the hunters participating in the event. The hunters arrive with carrying their eagles, proudly holding them high on their fists. After taking several turns of the arena, running on their horses, the hunters gather at one spot for the visitors to take their photo. 
●The first event is for the hunters to demonstrate their eagle training and hunting skills. Many experienced eagle hunters perform this sport better than the new hunters. In this event, the hunter has to instruct the eagle that after a particular decided sequence, the eagle has to land on the hunter's arm. 
●Lure grabbing or Shyrga Tartu is the second event in which the eagle is expected to grab a piece of rabbit fur. The rabbit is tied with the rope, and it trails on the ground behind the horse.
