East Japan 2013 Day 4 (Part 2): Fujiko F. Fujio Museum and Shinyokohama Raumen Museum

Day 4, November 4, 2014
Doraemon Museum and Ramen Museum

It started to rain when we finished our Cup Noodles museum trip and we went directly to Fujiko F. Fujio Museum, also known as Doraemon Museum. I am a fan of Doraemon, sino ba naman ang hindi magkakagusto sa alien na yun. I love his bulsa, kasya lahat! :)

FUJIKO F. FUJIO MUSEUM

Doraemon museum is located in Kawasaki City, a city outside of Tokyo. You can go to the museum by Odakyu or JR Nanbu line, get off at Noborito station and grab the shuttle bus service from the station to the museum.

You must must buy your tickets prior to your visit and due to the small area of the museum, tickets are limited per museum time. There are four schedules in a day - 10:00 in the morning, 12 at noon, 2 in the afternoon and last at 4 in the afternoon. Upon ticket purchase at Lawson, you must indicate your visit schedule.

The museum presents the life of Fujiko F. Fujio, the artist and animator behind Doraemon, Mojako and many of the little aliens cartoons in Japan. It also houses some of the original works of Fujio, his materials and some of the never released Doraemon stories.

Similarly, it has a mini theater that shows Doraemon and the Space Alien movie, never released in the Philippines. It has also a mini park that has different Doraemon and Fujio's other characters.

You won't miss the shuttle bus to the museum, it's screaming "Doraemon!"
Cool museum attendants. Japanese autumn uniforms!

RAMEN MUSEUM

I wasn't a fan of noodles, but I like the ramen soup. So we decided to take a visit to the famous ramen museum in Tokyo, which houses different ramen shops - a one-stop shop for all ramen enthusiasts.

Located in the other part of Yokohama, one can access the museum by making one's way to Shin Yokohama station and walk towards the museum, about 10 minutes walk.

Ramen Vendo. After all, Japan is known to be the vendo country.

Some of the souvenir items available at the shop. 

Laddles and Soup pans are also available for purchase. 

Breads and ramen toppings. 

The rain didn't stop for the night and we decided to call it off since we have to be early for tomorrow's itinerary.
