Yokohama is easily accessible from Tokyo, but there’s enough to see and do here that it’s worth more than a day trip. Visit Minato Marai 21, a popular, modern neighborhood with great shopping and tons of restaurant options. TripAdvisor travelers also recommend stopping at Big Wharf (Osanbashi Pier), a uniquely shaped pier with spectacular views.

We open 365days. Shin-Yokohama Raumen Museum was founded on March 6th, 1994 as the world's first food-themed amusement park. From the start, our concept has been to be the one-stop place to enjoy the flavors of this national dish from renowned shops across Japan without stepping on a plane. To commemorate our 20th anniversary, we've expanded on the Japan-wide concept to being one that covers areas worldwide, delivering even more of the attraction and fascination of ramen to one and all. Our nine ramen shops are showcased in a street-scape replication from the year 1958, Japan. It was in this year that the world's first instant ramen was invented.
I’ve been to the Shinyokohama Ramen Museum 3-4 times over the years. My wife only went the last time a few weeks ago. Since my previous visit, they improved the “museum” aspect on ground level with a demo counter. The gift shop seemed smaller. Downstairs is unchanged - and good for that! The decor is the facades from 1958 Japan and it’s awesome. You have branches of the best ramen shops around Japan and a guest shop from abroad. You will get a guide (available in several languages) that describes the style of each place and signature dish. They are rated on type of noodle, richness of broth, etc. Lines will form and there are a couple of status boards showing estimates of the wait time. Some of the most popular things will have waits of 45 minutes or more at times. They are all great. Go early to get into a popular one quickly for a small bowl, then go to another with a shorter line. Tips: there is an old-time candy shop, a bar, and a lounge as well. You will need Japanese yen cash, you order food by buying tickets from machines as in many small Japanese restaurants. There are English menus. Most shops do have a vegetarian or vegan broth in addition to pork or whatever is their standard. The cost of entry is worth it.

Attended for the RWC final, fantastic experience, the ground is the largest in Japan (72,000£ and so easy to get to. Not many bars close by however.
