At the CUPNOODLES MUSEUM in Ikeda City, Osaka Prefecture, the birthplace of instant ramen, 11 exhibits and attractions will delve into the appeal of instant ramen.
At the "Chicken Ramen Factory" attraction, you can experience the process of making "Chicken Ramen" from kneading the wheat flour to drying the noodles with the "Instant Oil Heating Drying Method."

At the "My CUPNOODLES Factory" attraction, you can create your own original cup noodles. Design your cup, choose your favorite flavor from four types of soup, and select four toppings from twelve different ingredients. You can make only one Cup Noodle in the world of your own taste and design.

Visitors can enjoy learning about the world's first instant ramen, Chicken Ramen, in “The Birth of Chicken Ramen (reproduced research hut)” where Momofuku Ando, the founder of Nissin Foods, developed it. There is also a "CUPNOODLES Drama Theater" that introduces the secrets of Cup Noodles using animation and computer graphics.

Also, "Exhibition of Instant Noodles" exhibit showcases the global spread of instant noodles, which are consumed at an astounding rate of approximately 120 billion servings annually, through displays of annual consumption by country and packaging of Cup Noodles from around the world—a truly impressive sight.
