Introduction

It is a museum dedicated to the father of instant noodles, Momofuku Ando. Ando was the founder of the Nissin Group and invented a revolutionary chicken ramen that greatly impacted people's eating culture. The museum showcases the tools used to make instant noodles 52 years ago and the history of the Nissin Group. Visitors can learn about the history of instant noodles through a historical wall made up of cup noodles, displaying the various types of instant noodles sold by Nissin in different eras. It's quite interesting. With prior reservation, visitors can even make their own customized instant noodles on-site. Children can also enjoy playing in the playground area and experience being a part of the noodle production line.
