Operators / Sumo morning practice at a stable
Arashio Stable — morning practice through the window
荒汐部屋 朝稽古見学
Ryogoku & Kiyosumi · Hamacho (Shinjuku line), exit A2
Why we recommend it
The real thing rather than a packaged tour — a working stable in Nihonbashi-Hamacho that lets anyone watch morning practice through its street windows for nothing. The rules are simple (no flash, stay quiet) and the stable also lists a paid guided option for a more structured visit.
- How to book
- No reservation for the free street-level window viewing; check the stable's online calendar first, as practice is sometimes cancelled.

We deliberately publish no opening hours or prices — they change. Every place links to its official site, which is the source of truth.

スモウエブリデイ 部屋見学ツアー
¥¥¥ · 180 min · English: yes
Rather than window-only viewing, this operator arranges indoor access to a working stable in Ryogoku and briefs you on etiquette beforehand so a first visit goes right. The optional chanko-nabe meal with wrestlers after practice is a rare add-on.
