CUPNOODLES MUSEUM Yokohama
Located in the Minato Mirai area, a key sightseeing spot in eastern Japan, the CUPNOODLES MUSEUM Yokohama offers a hands-on experience of instant ramen innovation and the creative thinking of Momofuku Ando, the founder of Nissin Foods, who developed the world's first instant noodles. You can learn about the history and technology behind how Japan’s proud food culture, instant ramen, spread across the globe, as well as the fascinating story behind the creation of Chicken Ramen and CUPNOODLES.

The "Chicken Ramen Factory" is a popular attraction where you can experience making Chicken Ramen by hand. From kneading the flour to stretching, steaming, seasoning, and drying the noodles using the "flash-frying drying method," you’ll pack your creation in your own designed package. Take it home to enjoy the handmade taste, or keep it as a memorable souvenir!

Where to stay:
Hotel New Grand
For an autumn stay, we recommend Hotel New Grand, where the contrast of the yellow ginkgo trees adds beauty to the scenery. Since its opening in 1927, this historic hotel has been a beloved landmark in front of Yamashita Park. The main building, which has walked hand-in-hand with Yokohama as a gateway to foreign cultures, is an elegant structure with history and prestige, representing Japan's classic hotels. The 18-story Tower Wing, opened in 1991, adds modernity suitable for the international city of Yokohama. From rooms facing the front, you can enjoy spectacular views of the Bay Bridge, Osanbashi Pier, Yamashita Park, and Yokohama Harbor. It’s also conveniently located, only about 25 minutes from Haneda Airport by limousine bus.

At "The Café" on the 1st floor of the main building, you can try the hotel’s famous Western dishes such as Seafood Doria, Spaghetti Napolitan, and Pudding a la Mode, which originated at the hotel and spread across Japan.
