Cupnoodles Museum

Cupnoodles Museum (カップヌードルミュージアム 横浜) is a unique museum located in Yokohama, Japan that celebrates the history and culture of instant noodles. The museum is dedicated to the invention of instant noodles by Momofuku Ando, the founder of Nissin Foods, and features a wide range of exhibits and interactive experiences.

One of the most popular exhibits at the museum is the Instant Noodles History Cube, which traces the evolution of instant noodles from their invention in 1958 to the present day.

Another highlight of the museum is the My Cup Noodle Factory, where visitors can create their own custom cup of instant noodles. Visitors can choose their own flavor, toppings, and packaging design, and then watch as their cup of noodles is made right before their eyes.

In addition to these exhibits, the Cup Noodle Museum also features a theater, a gift shop, and a restaurant that serves a variety of noodle dishes from around the world.
