SKIP THIS PLACE. this was the saddest sight for a horse and animal lover. I left wanting to cry for these horses.i was horrified by the poor and deplorable conditions those animals are in. Keep in mind ** DONT FEED DONT TOUCH THE HORSES * Dirty and disgusting toilet by the white house ,so unsanitary old outdated with brown water flushing . Got a lot of concern about the health and welfare of those horses , especially the ones in constant pain. Overgrown hoof ( and in dear need of a bare trim farrier some may even need corrective showing to rebalance their body) ,ribs showing , not many water spot . The grazing area the grass is already very short .didnt see any hay or supplement . One has its eye hurt and going blind an other had its canon bone touching the ground ouch .400 yens to enter supposedly " for the horses" but for any horse lover who knows horses and understand horse anatomy lot of malformation ( possibly from inbreeding) only a 100 of them breeding constantly within the same group and line ? And the ones with poor genes arent gelded either.thats a horrifying breeding proccess.the stallion are free to breed constantly even with mare that shouldnt or are in to poor condition to.This was the saddest sight for me as a horse owner. The gift shop was boring unoriginal bunch of horse plush cheap low quality key chains and postal cards . Nothing impressive . Staff wasnt the most friendly either and nothing much is explain........

This spot is definitely one of my Kyushu favorites. I highly recommend it, especially for nature and tranquility lovers. Just be mindful of your step, though, as there’s horse...
