賽馬培育產地 / Breeding of racehorses

北海道是有名的賽馬培育產地。其中又以日高地區的新冠町周邊聚集許多培育賽馬的牧場。從沿著太平洋行駛的國道235號線朝向山間地區約8公里的道路被稱作「純血寶馬銀座」。從國道的入口處的山丘上有停車場公園，可以瞭望整個牧場地區。也有牧場可以受理入內參觀，是夏季推薦的兜風地區。

Hokkaido is famous in Japan for its breeding of racehorses, and the Hidaka district is recognized as a mecca of thoroughbred horse ranches. There are a lot of ranches, especially around and in Niikappu Town. The road from route 235 running along the Pacific Ocean to the hills is called Thoroughbred Ginza - ginza stands for mecca in English. At the beginning of this road, there is a small park on a hill, which allows visitors to take in the panoramic views of pasture land. Some ranches permit visitors and looking at horses. It’s a lovely spot for a drive in summer.
