seven dome-like glamping tents emerge from the japanese woodland

nestled into an area of woodland in yamanashi prefecture, japan, the glamping facility will open to visitors this summer. among high coniferous trees, ‘the forest’ takes form as a cluster of seven geodesic dome tents that establish a connection with nature while being integrated into the lush greenery. serving as an individual room, each dome features a different concept to accommodate a varying number of guests.all images courtesy of yamanashi glamping

only eighty minutes by car from the city center, visitors — including beginners and families — can enjoy comfortable and safe glamping. as for the interior, each tent includes several facilities such as air conditioning and heating, providing visitors with relaxation and fun all year round. moreover, each tent stands on a deck and is equipped with a private BBQ space.

apart from the dome-like tents, ‘the forest’ includes an administration building ‘the main’ that consists of seven showers corresponding to each room. this structure houses also a co-working space named ‘cafe forest’ where visitors can relax, work or interact with each other. meanwhile, the glamping facility includes a series of activities, like chopping wood, collecting insects, and playing with stones picked up in the riverbank, inviting people to experience the unique area.
