Togyu Review
After the sex museum, Uwajima's other attraction is this sport in which two bulls lock horns and push, à la sumo, for control of a ring. The bullfights date back to the 18th century, and if you can make it during one of the six annual tournaments, you'll have a great time. The stadium is at the foot of Maru-yama, a 30-minute walk from Uwajima Station.
