②Former Yasuda Garden

This garden was constructed for a feudal lord in Edo period and is good for people who want to take a break or a walk. And If you have some time to spend till your sumo starts, it's worth visiting. This beautiful garden keeps a pond where carps and tortoises swim and a vivid vermilion small bridge. Color-changing leaves on the tree at fall paints amazingly on the canvas. And skytree is viewed in distance too.

③Yokoamicho Park

This is an oasis for men and women of all ages with a variety of attractions from a Japanese-type garden to a playground.
Yokoamicho Park was built and opened in September 1930. To remember the people who died in the earthquake and the major undertaking of rebuilding Tokyo after the earthquake, Tokyo Memorial Hall and the Memorial Hall of Reconstruction were built. After that, this became the memorial park to remember the loss of the souls who died in the Great Tokyo Air Raid as well.

Yoshiba is the place to try "chanko-nabe," which is the stew that sumo wrestlers eat to put on weight and endure their rigorous training.
