• 3-chōme-32-18 Shimoyoshida - Private horse interaction / Flexible experience / Participants can feed, brush, ride, and play with the horses in a relaxed setting / Duration: 1 hour /

Our mission centers on well-being, not only for our guests and horses but as a fundamental principle in all our activities. We are dedicated to fostering harmony among people, animals, and nature. Barikiya significantly contributes to animal welfare by offering retired horses a second career in tourism. In Japan, horses often have limited options post-retirement. By providing them with a new purpose, we essentially save their lives and allow them to flourish in a healthy environment.

We are also committed to preserving Japan’s cultural heritage, particularly the ancient art of Yabusame (horseback archery), which is less common in modern times. By sharing this tradition with people worldwide, we aim to keep this vital part of our history alive. Together, we can preserve tradition, promote sustainability, and foster a meaningful connection between humans and horses.
