There are not many reviews of this attraction, and they are all biased. After this experience, share some rational summaries and refer to friends behind. It's hard to come here, try not to leave regrets. 1. Regarding the distance, from Zhangye G227 navigation, half of the bumpy sand and stone roads (roads are already being built, it is estimated that they will be good soon), the back half of the road conditions are better, limited and high, and the RV just passed. 2. Regarding accommodation, after the military and horse welcome you to the house number, it is a small village outside the scenic spot, several accommodations, the most expensive is the Wowo self-driving camp living tent about 600, the scale is relatively large, more entertainment, suitable for parents and children. There are also several simple hotels in the village, about 200 yuan, and it is OK, and the proprietress is enthusiastic. The RV can be parked in the parking lot opposite the playground in the center. The deeper choice is the accommodation in the scenic area, two places in the general camp and the resort town of Luqi, the holiday cottage, about 600. The location of the General Camp is a must for horse drinking. The town of Luxi is closer to the valley and is suitable for horse riding into the mountains. The wooden house in Luxi Town is relatively large, the dining is OK, and the price is fair. If you live in the scenic area, it seems that you can drive in by car, but some people take the shuttle bus with luggage. I haven't figured this problem out yet. 3. Regarding the scenery, I always think that all the attractions are better as they go inside. I personally like the scenery of the town of Luxi. If you live there, you can ride horses or hike into the mountains. It has the feeling of Swiss scenery. If you can't see the horse drinking water, then just look at a small lake, there is nothing special. As the most distinctive feature of this attraction, it should be to see the military horse (don't be fooled by the publicity photos of the thousands of horses). I regret that the time of my trip was not right, so I reminded my friends later: there is no time to drink water in the horse, and I can't see the horse (except for the horse riding by tourists), So be sure to wait for Malay at the waterside around 7:30 in the morning, or around 4 pm (sometimes the horse does not come to drink water in the afternoon). Because these horses are privately owned by herdsmen, the scenic spot cannot provide an official timetable. It is a pity that I didn't get to this time point when I came to this scenic spot. 4. Regarding horse riding, the price is basically unified, 50 yuan an hour. The horses are very robust and obedient, which is a high-quality choice for domestic horse riding. There are 4 horse riding points: (1) The parking lot at the entrance of the scenic spot solicits guests, from the door to the observation deck, about 2 hours, this is the choice of most people, suitable for basic horse riding needs. (2) The general camp riding horse riding, small circle 1 hour, large circle 2 hours, surrounded by cattle and sheep, the farthest to the lake. This point is suitable for following the horse group to drink water (3) Caoxi Town horse riding, personally recommended, 2 hours can ride into the valley, but unfortunately a large cloud floated that day, quickly folded me back, or let me experience a horse riding whip feeling. (4) From the observation deck back to the three fork road at the entrance of the scenic spot, you can go to the forest canyon by horse riding. I didn't go deep to see this, but it is worth experiencing to see other people's photos. Overall, the horses here are great, the leaders are also good, and the zero-based ones can let the horses run around, which is very feel. I hope my sharing will be useful to you 😀

    Shandan Army Racecourse is a small attraction in the Great Northwest, the world's largest horse farm, founded by General Xihan Huoqiu, has a history of more than 2,000 years. The main activity in the scenic area is horse riding. There are several routes, the shortest half an hour and the longest three hours. You can also see groundhogs on the riding road. If you have time, you can stay in the scenic area for one night. In the morning, you can see the horses coming out to drink water at the horse distribution center. It is quite spectacular.

    The military horse farm ticket is not expensive, 65 yuan plus the scenic spot ticket 20 yuan, but riding a horse at the military horse farm is a lot of money. There were several groups of solicitors at the door to ride horses. I later went to the scenic spot. There were also a few horses at the entrance of the General Camp. I was soliciting business. The horse looked taller than the outside. Before the end of the experience, the coach saw that I was OK to ride, and took me to speed up for a few hundred meters. It really feels like flying, it's cool!

    The scenery is pleasant, the large grassland and hillsides, there are many animals such as cattle and sheep, dry rafts, hares, etc. The children especially like it. I originally planned to stay for 2 nights, and finally stayed for 4 nights. Every day, the coach took a different route with horse riding, while enjoying the scenery and practicing equestrian. At the end of a few days, It is already possible to run horses quickly. I have been to so many grasslands, and the horse riding fee here is the most reasonable. It is 50 yuan an hour. My daughter and I have been walking for 4 hours and only 600 yuan. In Qinghai, we have been riding for less than an hour. My daughter and I have been charged 600 yuan.

    Going to the horse farm is to ride a horse, but horse riding is also risky, especially the short lady and the person with poor physical coordination, or take the scenic bus to see the scenery and take pictures, after all, safety first. A hidden point is worth recommending. The cafeteria of the tourist service center at the gate is good. The beef is good. The souvenir shop also has local products. You can buy it if you know the goods.

    One of the few military horse farms retained in China is worth a look
