Hi! Congratulations for your site!!! very useful info.

My husband and I will go to Tokyo the first week of November, is there any place where we can see Sumo Wrestlers practice? I read it is not tournament time but...
Thanks!

Reply To Sumo Tournaments In November

Unfortunately November is not Tournament time in Tokyo.
If changing your schedule is something you are willing to consider, then you'll find that you can catch Sumo tournaments in Fukuoka during November...

One more thing you can do in Tokyo is visit the 'Sumo stables' where Professional Sumo wrestlers live together. You'll have to be accompanied by someone speaking Japanese.
I hear some hotels can arrange this.

Regarding useful info for other Japan areas, I suggest you start at Coolest Places To Visit In Japan

Have a Lovely time!
