Billed as the world's first ramen-themed food amusement park, admission is JPY 450. On the first floor, they sell packaged ramen and souvenirs from all over Japan, and you can also make your own customized ramen.
What surprised me most wasn't the ramen, but how stepping downstairs felt like traveling back in time. It was filled with Showa-era streetscapes, neon lights, and nostalgic decor, making it a really atmospheric place for photos.
I tried ramen from two shops this time, and their broths, noodles, and textures were quite different. You can choose based on the flavors you prefer.

Oasis 21
The Oasis 21 is famous for its symbolic glass roof, also known as the “Spaceship-Aqua ”. The facility has a bus terminal and is also connected to the subway and the Meitetsu line .Located within the heart of Nagoya city, the facility is known to be a photogenic location due to the illuminations lighting up the skyline.
If you're visiting Nagoya, I highly recommend stopping by Oasis 21. It's right in the bustling Sakae shopping district, with convenient transportation and tons of places to explore nearby! During the day, you can shop at the nearby department stores and underground malls, then find a restaurant when you need a break. At night, the illuminated Spaceship-Aqua creates a completely different atmosphere and looks great in photos.
There are also plenty of izakayas, restaurants, and shopping centers nearby, so you can eat, shop, and take a walk all in one trip. Personally, I think it's worth visiting both during the day and at night. It's especially relaxing to take a walk here after an evening of shopping. -

Chunichi Building
Chunichi Building, which opened in April 2024, is a mixed-use complex in the Sakae area of Nagoya. From B1F to 5F, it offers a wide variety of shops, including restaurants, cafes, general goods stores, and local product shops, and its greatest appeal is that visitors can enjoy food, shopping, and sightseeing all in one place. Directly connected to the underground mall and easy to access, it is also conveniently located as a base for sightseeing.
If you're shopping in Nagoya's Sakae area, I recommend stopping by the Chunichi Building! It's in a great location, and you can enjoy food, shopping, and views all in one building.
My favorite part is the free observation area on the 7th floor. You can look out over central Nagoya without paying admission, and the nighttime city views are especially atmospheric. You don't need to set aside much time for it. It's just right for ending the day by coming up for some fresh air and city views after getting tired from shopping. -

SUNSHINE SAKAE
The building is located along Nishiki-dori, one of Nagoya's main streets, and features a Ferris wheel on its wall. The Ferris wheel, called "Sky-Boat," is 40 meters in diameter and reaches a maximum height of 52 meters above the ground.
When shopping around Sakae in Nagoya, don't miss this distinctive multipurpose building! The Ferris wheel on the roof is the biggest eye-catcher and has become a prominent landmark in the Sakae area. You can ride it and enjoy views of downtown Nagoya from above.
There are also tons of department stores, shopping centers, and dining options nearby, so you'll never run out of places to go. It has a great atmosphere from day to night, letting you shop, enjoy good food, and take in the city views all in one trip. -
