It appears that camping is regaining popularity in Japan.

The new options include glamping, or glamorous camping, which offers luxury tent stays without the need to bring any camping gear or food, as well as solo camping. Conventional family camping is also popular.
An increasing number of businesses are starting to make and sell related products, expecting further growth in the camping market.
