A visit to Cup Noodles Museum is not to be missed if you visit Yokohama. For any instant noodle fan, the museum is a fun place to learn about the history of ramen. Best of all, you can try making your own cup noodle or your own chicken ramen by hand at the museum. There are two cup noodle museums in Japan, one in Osaka and another in Yokohama. I decided to visit the one in Yokohama, which is only half an hour train away from Tokyo.

Tokyo Solamachi is the large shopping complex at the base of the Tokyo Skytree, the tallest structure in Japan. It has over 300 shops and restaurants. Even if you don’t go up to the Tokyo Skytree, it’s still worth to spare some time visiting Tokyo Solamachi.

Priced at only 950 yen, the Edomae Tendon (tempura rice) at Kanneko Hanasuke is perhaps the most affordable tendon in Tokyo. Cheap and delicious food is well worth a special trip and I decided to pay it a visit while I was in Tokyo this year.

Finally! I got to enter Ghibli Museum for real this year! It was closed during my last visit in 2010 due to renovation (read about it here). It certainly lived up to my expectation and imagination. I thoroughly enjoyed the museum, especially the exclusive short film shown in its theater.

This is the second time I visited Tokyo, however, it was the first for my sister. So I wanted to bring her to see Asakusa Sensoji (the oldest temple in Tokyo) and do some shopping at Harajuku. I still managed to see something new revisiting Asakusa and Harajuku.
