|  |  The November BashoThe greatest Sumo wrestlers in Japan, and therefore the world, meet at the Fukuoka Kokusai Center for the November Basho, one of the year's six Grand Tournaments. Crowds cheer as meaty men fight for victory using throws, trips and tricks.The best seats in the house are those situated closest to the dohyo (the ring) but, be warned, these are extremely difficult to get hold of. The large arena provides many seating alternatives, however, ranging from a simple cushion in the isu-seki (balcony) to a box-seki (similar to a corporate box) in the Kokugikan at the back.
Make sure you order tickets early, as they can sell out quickly. |
