Ryogoku Kokugikan · Sumo Town

The home of sumo — stadium, stables, and chanko hotpot.

The home of sumo. Even without a tournament, the Sumo Museum inside the arena and the chanko-nabe restaurants around it — the high-protein hotpot the wrestlers eat — make Ryogoku a half-day. Kyu-Yasuda Garden and the Hokusai Museum are minutes away.
