Kokugikan

Kokugikan is the hall to see Sumo tournaments in January (Hatsu-basho), May (Natsu-basho) and September (Aki-basho), located in Ryogoku. Sumo is a battle of Sumo wrestlers called Rikishi, which respects formalities and ceremonies. Yokozuna is the top of the hierarchy of Rikishi. All three Yokozuna (Hakuho, Kakuryu and Harumafuji) are from Mongolia.

  



If it is not a period of Sumo tournament, you will still enjoy the Sumo museum and buy some Sumo goods and sweets.
