We’ve all heard of The Museum Of Ice Cream and The Bubble Tea Factory, but what about the new Instant Noodle Playground in Singapore? If you are thinking of where to go next weekend, this is just for you!

Everyone loves instant noodles right?

The newly opened playground has 13 creative installations that will keep you entertained.

Upon entry, you will see dangling instant noodles that looks very realistic! Just like how when you first take it out from the packet.

There are a couple of IG worthy displays that really struck me! My favourite ones were the Instaham and the giant cup noodles.

Previously, this display has yet to be revealed! It is supposedly Singapore’s favourite cup noodle brand. Now we know that many of us love the Tom Yam flavour!

Although this installation is taller than me, it is definitely IG worthy!

Of course, you may be thinking what’s a playground without some fun right?

Fret not, because you will surely enjoy yourselves in the Nissin Chu Qian Yi Ding slide and Ramen Pot Swing.

The fun doesn’t stop here as there are other interactive exhibitions and even arcade games for you to enjoy!

Try your luck as you can win prizes such as cup noodles and even Lazada vouchers!

Before you go, check out their merchandise store if you would love to pick up some gifts for your loved ones!

Each ticket is priced at $21 and it includes a goodie bag, arcade tokens and vouchers for Eatbox.

Bring your loved ones down to share the fun and joy together!
