Sumo wrestling in Ryogoku

This review was posted in November 2010. The information may have changed since then (about our content).

Sumo is the oldest sport in Japan and was originally practiced as a part of Shinto rituals for agricultural fertility in ancient times.
If you look at sumo you'll realize it's more than a sport.

Access: Toei Oedo Line or JR Sobu Line
