意味

Glamping — glamorous camping with luxury amenities like proper beds, electricity, and gourmet meals in a nature setting.

Borrowed from English, グランピング exploded in popularity in Japan during the 2020s as people sought outdoor experiences without roughing it. Facilities range from dome tents to treehouses, all with hotel-like amenities. It appeals to people who want nature but not discomfort, and to Instagram users seeking photogenic outdoor settings. グランピング facilities have opened across Japan, especially in scenic rural areas.
