The 4.37-kilometer Cuigezhuang Horse Road in Beijing was officially opened. What is the origin of Cui Gezhuang and Ma?

Cuigezhuang has a deep relationship with horses, which was recorded not only in Liao and Jin Dynasties, but also in Yuan Dynasty, where the imperial court stationed troops to drink horses. In recent years, it is also one of the latest places to develop professional horse farms around Beijing. The 4.37km racecourse officially opened in Cuigezhuang this time, due to its good geographical location and beautiful surrounding scenery, will also become another punching place for network celebrities around Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei, which will not only be conducive to the promotion of equestrian, but also enrich the tourism resources in this area and provide assistance for the economic growth of Cuigezhuang.

First, horses were kept in Liao and Jin Dynasties.

Attending Beijing, one of the five major Beijing departments of Liao, has its capital near Huanglinfu, which is now near Inner Mongolia. As a nomadic people, Liao has a natural affinity for horses, and Cuigezhuang is not far from the capital of Beijing at that time. Whether it is provided to aristocrats or royalty, it is profitable to raise horses in the local area, which is inseparable from the environment of the times at that time and is also recorded in relevant historical materials.

Second, in the Yuan Dynasty, the imperial court stationed troops to drink horses.

The rulers of the Yuan Dynasty were Mongolians, and Mongolia was also a direct ethnic group. At that time, the Yuan Dynasty made Beijing its capital. Cuigezhuang, because it is close to the capital, has become a place for the royal family to station troops and drink horses. Stationing the royal army in this area can protect the safety of the royal family and deal with all kinds of emergencies in the first place.

Three, in recent years, one of the earliest places to develop professional racecourses.

Cuigezhuang has been building a professional racecourse for nearly 20 years. Due to the surrounding environment, historical conditions and other factors, there are also many large-scale professional racetracks in the local area. The officially opened racecourse is more popular on the original basis, so that many non-professionals can easily experience the fun of riding. At the same time, with the beautiful surrounding environment and equestrian culture with historical connotation, it is believed that it can also become another network celebrity punching place around Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei.
