The interesting part is that at the underground there is a nice reconstruction of a Japanese town in the forties, with fake facades of houses and shops and real ramen-ya where you can sample the noodles (but nothing is included in the price of the entrance ticket!)

My friends had a strange plan: they took me to the 'Shin-Yokohama Ramen Museum'. Do you know 'ramen'? It's a soup with noodles, bean sprouts and pork, a typical Japanese dish. There are many varieties according to the region, but I didn't know there were SO MANY! Well, come to the museum and learn everything you ever wanted to know about ramen.
