Playful PlayStation team celebrates local Ryogoku culture and takes a PS5 to Kanda Shrine for a traditional autumn event.
Sumo
100-year milestone brings you a way to incorporate sumo style into your wardrobe without wearing a loincloth.
Early-morning and late-night events are aimed at visitors with an interest in high places and rich culture who also have deep pockets.
If you don’t have a team of sumo wrestlers to cook chanko nabe for you, will a rice cooker do the job for a one-person hot pot meal?
Menchanko-tei combines noodles with traditional sumo food for a meal that’s become popular in Japan and the United States.
Adding one surprise ingredient is said to make this classic Western-style Japanese dish pair extra well with white rice.
Street lids are now some of the city’s most unusual tourist sites, and there’s a way you can take them home as free souvenir cards.
We all know Ryogoku is sacred ground for sumo wrestlers, but this is bordering on ridiculous!
