Autumn delight - Horse Appreciation Tour to Japan

1 August- 15 September

Explore. Experience. Enjoy. Beijing Clubhouse is proud to launch its first horse appreciation tour series to bring you to a world of horse and travel adventures. We will first take you to Japan for a lowdown on the country’s fascinating equine industry.

Beijing Clubhouse invites you to join this five-day trip to Japan in early November, during which you will visit Kyoto Racecourse, one of the oldest and most beautiful racecourses in Japan, and experience a series of exhilarating races including a jumping race and a noted Group Race for two-year-old horses. You will also have exclusive access to the Northern Farm and Shadai Stallion Station in Hokkaido, where you can go behind the scenes and learn about horse breeding, how horses move to a stable and how thoroughbreds are raised. At Northern Horse Park, you can saddle up and go horse riding, followed by the pleasure of watching a pony show. With our crafted itinerary, you will learn the ins and outs of the equestrian industry and be well on your way to becoming a horse connoisseur.

November is a time when Hokkaido is magnificently decorated with brightly tinted autumn leaves, a sight to behold. In Kyoto, the views are just as stunning, as November marks the start of the autumn foliage season for this historical city. You can soak up the beauty of the fall foliage, savour the local delicacies, visit a renowned whisky distillery, or simply go shopping. It is a trip that will leave you with unforgettable memories and much more!
