Asakusa Sumo Club
Sumo, Japan's national sport, has been around since the Edo period. It is very popular with foreign tourists visiting Japan but tickets to attend an official Grand Sumo Tournament are very hard to come by. There are also many customs involved in visiting a sumo stable, which can be somewhat intimidating for first-timers. To solve this problem, we are pleased to announce the opening of a new facility in January 2024!
Visiting the sumo stable in Asakusa was a truly unique and meaningful cultural experience. Watching the wrestlers' daily training up close gave me a much deeper understanding of the discipline and intensity behind sumo.
