The CupNoodles Museum Yokohama, opened in 2011 in Minato Mirai, tells the story of instant noodles and their inventor Momofuku Ando, who created Chicken Ramen in 1958 and Cup Noodles in 1971. Visitors see a replica of his work shed and a wall of noodle packages, and can design their own cup in a workshop.
The Yokohama Museum of Art opened in 1989 in the Minato Mirai district, in a stone-clad building by Kenzo Tange with a 180-metre colonnaded facade. Its collection of more than 15,000 works includes Cézanne, Picasso, Dalí and Magritte, artists linked to Yokohama and photography, and it reopened after a major renovation.
Hikawa Maru is an ocean liner built in Yokohama for the NYK Line and put into service in 1930 on the route to Seattle. She served as a hospital ship in the Second World War, crossed the Pacific 254 times and has been moored at Yamashita Park since 1961; visitors walk through the Art Deco passenger rooms, the bridge and the engine room.
The Shin-Yokohama Ramen Museum opened in 1994 in Yokohama's Kōhoku Ward as a museum devoted to ramen. The ground floor covers the dish's history and the noodles, soups, toppings and bowls used across Japan, while the basement floors recreate a Tokyo streetscape of 1958, where branches of regional ramen shops serve their bowls.
