Horse is named the world’s most beautiful, then experts take closer look at its coat and realize the unimaginable

Horses are stunning creatures, and this one from Turkey may be the most beautiful yet. Dubbed “the most gorgeous horse in the world,” this Akhal-Teke breed stands out with its golden coat that gleams in sunlight. Originating from the now-extinct Turkoman horse, the Akhal-Teke is rare, with only about 3,500 in existence.

Known as “the horse from heaven” in China, its coat structure reflects light, giving it a dazzling, almost divine glow—thought to help with desert camouflage. This ancient breed, dating back 3,000 years to Turkmenistan, is truly a natural wonder. Enjoy the video below!
