Japan Trip 2008 - Part 3 / 4th Day












This is Minatomirai Train Station and it was located at the bottom level, inside Queen's Square. The picture of the train station was taken when we were going down the escalator. I found it quite interesting. We were heading towards our next destination, the ramen museum.













Haiz...we were lost on way again!!!! {{o(>.<)O}} We alighted at Shin-Takashima which was one stop earlier. We even went out of the train station and found us, facing a piece of vacant land with construction works been carried on and we didn't see alot of people, even though we spotted an arcade but it was an empty one and a bubble tea stall. (We were quite shocked to see a bubble tea stall in Japan!!!) We shared to get one bubble tea, in order to ask for the correct direction to Ramen Museum. V(^+++^) V












The admission fee is 300yen (approx. S$4.20). The first level was the introduction of the ramen history, followed by the different types of ramen, and souvenirs / products stall.


























The basement was very interesting place. We felt like we had travelled back to the Meiji era. The old building structures, the childhood toys and of course, rows of ramen stalls, with different favor. I will highly recommend this place for ramen lovers. The ramen was delicious and tasty. Yum! Yum! ^___^

Japan Trip 2008 - Part 2 / 4th Day























For a start, we went to Landmark Plaza to do some shopping as per stated in my shopping list. Heehee. From the first picture, you will see a Ferry's wheel from far, and that that's where we planned to go when the night comes.
















The interior look of Landmark Plaza. Beautiful. \(>o<)/
























We headed off to Queen's Square, which was just next to Landmark Plaza.

Japan Trip 2008 - Part 1 / 4th Day












This was the 4th day in Tokyo and we had planned to spend our full day at Yokohama. Before heading off, we had our breakfast at Macdonald.













Muilt-dustbin, interesting I have to say, although not used to it when we emptied our tray. ^^"













Yokohama was at sub urban area of Tokyo so we took about 45mins to one hour to reach Yokohama Train Station, which was the wrong stop, supposed to alight at the next stop, Sakuragicho.
















Finally, we reached yokohama. The first thing we did, we went to the Tourist Information Centre, which could be seen once we came out from the Train Station, to gather some maps.
