Grand Sumo: Morning Training at Takasago Stable & Commemorative Photo Experience (Asakusa)

About this experience

Sumo is a popular Japanese martial art and combat sport with a long tradition dating back to ancient times. This tour allows you to observe a serious sumo wrestler training session and take pictures with them. While matches are viewed from a distance, this is a valuable opportunity to see the powerful wrestlers up close, which is unique to training sessions. Enjoy a rare opportunity to witness active professional sumo wrestlers engaging in serious practice up close. Visit the authentic "Takasago stable" sumo stable in Tokyo. Takasago stable is known as one of the most prestigious stables in the sumo world, having produced many Yokozuna (Grand Champion) and Ozeki (Champion), including 6 Yokozuna and 8 Ozeki to date. The tour finishes in the morning, so we recommend taking your time to visit nearby Asakusa in the afternoon. This area offers sightseeing and shopping, including "Sensoji Temple," Tokyo's oldest temple, and "Kappabashi Kitchenware Town," where you can find all kinds of cooking tools.
