Why You Should Visit

A Grand Sumo autumn regional tour stop held to mark the opening of the brand-new Yamato Kogyo Arena Himeji in Tegarayama Peace Park. Over one day you can follow the full tour program: open morning practice, lower-division bouts, the ring-entering ceremonies of the top division and yokozuna, top-division bouts and the closing bow-twirling ritual. Tours feel closer and more relaxed than official tournaments, and watching the wrestlers train up close is a highlight. The indoor venue is just a short walk from JR Tegarayama-Heiwakoen Station.
