Happy New Year
Unfortunately, there are a lot of clouds in the local area.
The first sunrise was not seen, and on its feet
I went to the temple for the first time.
The photo was taken at the end of the year
In the scenery of early morning training of Banei horse racing
It is currently the only venue in Japan.
On this day, it was around minus 10 degrees Celsius.
When it cools down to minus 15 degrees Celsius or lower
The breath and sweat I exhaled froze all over my body.
It will be pure white.

The prototype of Japan horse racing is said to have originated from horse racing (Western-style horse racing) by foreigners living in the Yokohama Settlement, and from there it changed into Japan's own horse racing.
Modern horse racing in Japan is generally a "flat race" in which jockeys compete on horseback, but there are horse races with unusual rules in the world. "Tethered trotting race" is a style of horse racing in which a motorcycle is connected to the back of a horse and a jockey rides on it as a driver.
In Obihiro City in Hokkaido, there is also a horse race called "Banei Horse Race" that does not involve horseback riding.
In addition, "steeplechase races" are also popular modern horse races.
In this article, we explain the history and appeal of modern horse racing along with the video.
