Sumo is also very popular among foreigners. Our foreign guest explored Sumo town, Ryogoku and found 1 pound steaks to King size clothing stores. A Stable master introduced us to the Kokugikan and Sumo Training School where the newly entered Sumo wrestler learned about Sumo for 6 months. Visiting Sumo Stable is a whole new experience to see their life style living together and their hard training. Our foreign guest also went to meet a child sumo wrestler who is aiming to become Yokozuna in the future. Let's rediscover what is fascinating about Sumo through foreigners eyes.
