Do you know the horse Fusaichi Pegasus? Although he was born in the United States, he was purchased by a Japanese owner. After much training, he is famous for winning the Kentucky Derby, one of the most prestigious races in the United States. The owner donated this statue to Northern Horse Park to commemorate the glory of Fusaichi Pegasus. #Snowscape #ThemePark #NorthernHorsePark

We took a stroll around Northern Horse Park in the middle of winter. Unlike normal business hours, the areas that can be explored are limited during this season. Also, you will be walking in the freezing cold, so warm clothes are a must. However, this is one of the few chances to see the pure white Northern Horse Park and the horses that are warmed up against the cold. #Snowscape #ThemePark #NorthernHorsePark

Northern Horse Park is an affiliated facility of Northern Farm, one of Japan's leading race horse breeding farms, and is known as a horse theme park. Normally it boasts a vast area of ​​land, but during winter operation it is significantly reduced in size. Still, it is a fun theme park where you can enjoy interacting with horses. #Snowscape #ThemePark #NorthernHorsePark #Hokkaido

Depending on the season, the pony show held at Palazzo Vega Pony House is open to the public for practice. Unlike regular pony shows, it is just practice, so the horses mainly perform repetitive movements, but the performance is cute in a way that is different from regular shows. #Themepark #NorthernHorsePark #SnowScenery

This museum is located on the second floor of the Palazzo Vega Pony House. As a museum about horse racing and breeding farms, you can learn related knowledge. Since it is on the second floor of the Palazzo Vega Pony House, you can look down on the pony shows when they are held. #ThemePark #Museum #NorthernHorsePark

Palazzo Vega Pony House is a particularly large building located near the parking lot of Northern Horse Park. This building mainly holds pony shows, but also sells merchandise and snacks, and accepts activity reservations. This is likely to be the main tourist spot in winter. #ThemePark #SnowScenery #NorthernHorsePark

During the winter operation period of Northern Horse Park, Diado Buena Vista will be a restaurant. You can enjoy delicious food made with local ingredients in a warm place, away from the freezing cold and snow outside. The interior is quite luxurious, as it is used for various events. The food we ate while looking at the snowy scenery was very delicious. #restaurant #themepark #snowscenery #NorthernHorsePark

The white building to the north of Northern Horse Park is Diado Buena Vista. It is an event venue used for large parties and weddings except in winter. In winter, the regular restaurants are closed and this building is used as a restaurant instead. #ThemePark #NorthernHorsePark #SnowScenery

On the second floor of the Horse Gallery, there is a special corner dedicated to the famous horse Deep Impact. In addition to various items and photos related to Deep Impact, who is famous for being the undefeated Triple Crown winner, there is also an auction table that recreates the time of the winning bid, where you can take commemorative photos. #Theme Park #Northern Horse Park #Museum

Northern Horse Park was formerly Northern Farm, which belongs to the Shadai Group, one of Japan's leading racehorse breeding groups. Here, in the Horse Gallery, you can learn about how Northern Farm has raised racehorses. #Snowscape #ThemePark #Museum #NorthernHorsePark

There are three stables at Northern Horse Park that visitors can freely visit, but Stable 1 is the one closest to the entrance. This is where you'll find Wind in Her Hair, the mother of the famous horse Deep Impact. Although she's quite an old horse, she still looks healthy. #Snowscape #ThemePark #NorthernHorsePark

There are several stables at Northern Horse Park, where famous horses that once competed at the national and local level spend the rest of their lives. Here at Stable 2, you can see horses such as Vermilion, who competed on dirt tracks. #Snowscape #ThemePark #Stable #Horse

Northern Horse Park, known as a horse theme park, offers trial horse riding lessons that even inexperienced people can take part in. The lessons take place in an indoor riding arena.
