Top Things to Do in Tokyo in September

As it comes to autumn climatically, there are some autumn festivals held in Tokyo, which offers visitors opportunities to experience Japanese culture. The annual Grand Festival at Nezu-jinja Shrine, Fukuro Matsuri (Ikebukuro Festival), and Meguro Sanma Matsuri (saury festival) are the grandest festivals to welcome autumn. Visitors may also appreciate red spider lily during Manjushage Festival in Kinchakuda, and cosmos flowers on Cosmos Festival at Showa Memorial Park. September is the month of sumo in Tokyo, where a tournament is held. Visitors who are interested in sumo could go to watch the sumo competitions. Game enthusiasts can’t miss Tokyo Game Show, and culture lovers may enjoy a tea ceremony.
Tips
1. In typhoon season climatically, visitors would better be on the watch of local weather forecast and news before Tokyo tours. Don’t plan your tour to Tokyo on typhoon days.
2. To watch a sumo battle at stadium, visitors need to book the ticket long in advance. Before each competition, there will be a ceremony, which takes more time than the real battle; so be patient.
