The ostrich is the biggest bird known to humans, in terms of weight and size. Despite their heavy weight, ostriches can run fast. Ostriches also are adapted to circumstances like cold winter, so you can see ostriches at any time. You can see ostriches in Korea. Ostrich Kingdom is a unique place where you can ride ostriches. On the farm of thirty five hundred acres, there are three hundred ostriches. In Ostrich Kingdom, you can go through other experiences in addition to riding them: taking a picture with them, feeding them, bathing them, and going bowling with their eggs. It takes about two hours to go through these experiences.

You can see penned ostriches, but you can see lounging ostriches outside the pen. You may be afraid of ostriches coming to you, but there is no need for you to fear. The best experience of Ostrich Kingdom is riding ostriches. The rider must have strength to catch both wings because reins are not attached to ostriches. The backs of ostriches aren't flat, so it is not easy to keep your balance. Anyone who weighs forty to a hundred kilograms can ride ostriches. In the case of women and children, the staff of Ostrich Kingdom holds riders to prevent them from falling. You can ride them after the helper puts a black cloth on the face of the ostrich. When the black cloth is taken away, they start running.

When you take a picture with ostriches, you don't need to fear. By taking a picture with ostriches, you become familiar with them. If you can't dispel your fear of ostriches, feeding ostriches is also a way of dealing with your fear. You can give cabbage or feed to them. Sometimes, your fingers may be bitten by the ostrich. However, it is not dangerous. Because the beak of ostriches is blunt, your fingers will not be wounded.

The weight of an ostrich egg is from 1.3 to 1.6 kilograms. You can knock down bowling pins with an egg because the ostrich egg is hard. That is very interesting. If you treat the ostrich egg as a bowling ball, you can't knock down the bowling pin. Because the shape of the ostrich egg is oval, you must roll the ostrich egg sideways in order to knock down the bowling pin.

The cost of this experience is ten thousand won. You don't need to pay any money just to look around. Riding ostriches is available only for group visitors. The farm opens from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. I strongly recommend Ostrich Kingdom to people who want a novel experience. If you want more information, visit the web site: www.ostrichsafari.com
