Shandan horses are well-proportioned, robust, and vigorous. Despite their modest size, they excel in riding, carrying, and pulling, with exceptional endurance and adaptability, making them ideal for long-distance travel.

Shandan Horse Farm is not only famous for breeding fine horses but also for its captivating grassland scenery. Every summer, as you step into this vast grassland, you are greeted by fluffy white clouds, neighing horses, lush green grass, and thousands of acres of blooming rapeseed flowers under the Qilian snow peaks.

The essence of Shandan Horse Farm lies in its ecology; its function, value, and charm are all rooted in its ecological environment. With its endless green grass, clear rivers, Qilian pines and snow, and wild herds of horses, the ecological environment of Shandan Horse Farm now presents a new picture. Its unique natural landscape has become an indispensable highlight along the Silk Road tourist route.
