Houli Horse Ranch Introduction
Houli Racecourse is the most historically significant and largest public racecourse in Taiwan. The first and second stables, along with the main office, were built in 1912 (the first year of the Republic of China), serving as the horse breeding farm for the Governor-General of Taiwan during the Japanese colonial period. After Taiwan's retrocession, it became a breeding site for stallions and a training ground for the national defense cavalry. With the passage of time, it has transformed into a racecourse that offers tourism and recreational activities, still preserving the well-maintained historical architecture and rustic style from the Japanese colonial era.
