Banei Tokachi Obihiro Horse Race Track

Reviewed By simon_and_emma69 - Workington, United Kingdom

Drawn to this from some of the guide book reviews. We are not big horse racing fans or even regular betters but this was a brilliant event to visit. We even broke our journey Sapporo to Kushiro just to come here for a couple of hours and weren't disappointed. Make sure you check online first for the event timetable (racing is limited to weekends) and there's also a very helpful guide to ease you through the betting process - all quite straightforward. The racing itself is fascinating - my wife described it as horse drag racing in slow motion. There's quite a bit of pausing as the horses need a break between the hump sections of the track and the riders have to make sure they stay in lane. Even watching the small train system to get the sleds back to the start line was interesting. If you're passing Obihiro at the weekend I would suggest this is a must see stopover - you will never see anything quite like it anywhere else!

Kofuku Station

Reviewed By aichoo

A small place to spend 30min for pics. U can purchase little pinky notes from a local souvenir store, write your wishings and you may paste it at the station. Next to the station is a bell and a carriage. We went in late november so there is no crowd. With a little bit of snow, the entire area looks romantic and lovely.
