  THE YEAR OF THE HORSE  

 

Features

 

It may be the Chinese Year of the Pig, but the horse is featuring prominently in the minds of globetrotters these days, as the Nine Dragons Hill Polo Club prepares for its inaugural tournament at their posh club in Shanghai and Sotheby's brokers the auction (and return) of a ancient equestrian bronze from a Taiwanese collector back to the Chinese homeland.  This classic painting, from Han Gan, circa 750, is part of the Asian collection of the New York Metropolitan Museum of Art. 

Live life at a gallop!

DOUBLE HAPPINESS

China is the grand home of the new luxury, a fact that is nowhere more evident than at the ultra-posh Nine Dragons Hill Polo Club, which prepares for its October tournament at the club just outside of Shanghai.  Luxury Dossier takes you there....

If the world is a polo player’s oyster, then China is the newly emerging pearl, with two premium clubs focusing on international play and the upcoming Summer Olympics set for Beijing in 2008. Here’s a look at new facilities, upcoming tournaments, and how you can make your own China connection.

SIX DAYS IN DUBAI

It's the perfect cocktail for an early autumn adventure:  great speed, a handful of exotic off road vehicles, and a vast expanse of desert.  Here's a look into the Desert Classic Road race in Dubai and a few predictions about the victor in this hotly challenged event. 

There are only three certainties when the penultimate round of the FIA Cross  country Rally World Cup and the FIM Cross Country Rallies World Chapionship takes place later this month in Dubai.  One, it will be hot both on and off the course.  Two, it will be lavish.  And, finally, the UAE will hit the accelerator on their truly exceptional Arabian hospitality.
