Hello, New Guy Here, Living In Japan.

[Copperpot]

Hello all, I just joined the site and I've been interested in purchasing some yurts to open a small site for people to use as a campground in Japan. Just started looking for some vendors to price things out and I hope I don't become a pest with too many questions here.
Has anyone heard of any yurt dealers in Japan?

Thanks,
Christian

I do not know of any in Japan. The closest would be this company in Kyunggi-Do, Korea, but I do not know much about them:

Becky had them on her site. It takes a while to load the flash so be patient. I do not understand Korean, so I have no idea what it is saying lol.

Welcome to the site!

we had sent a few (authentic) yurts to Japan directly from Mongolia a few years back, but to make it viable in terms of transport, you would need buy a few of them. I don't want to use the forum for advertising, but you're welcome to contact us per e-mail for more details.
The same would actually apply for almost any manufacturer :-)
I have otherwise the contact of a company in Taiwan. Much less authentic yurts, but good ideas with bamboo / aluminium frame. They don't have a website, but would be happy to forward their e-mail.

Hi Christian,

I am not big on using this site to advertise either, but I am in Zhuhai, China, right by Macao and just across the Pearl River Delta from Hong Kong.

We have sent a few (well... 3) yurts to Japan several years back (FOB Ningbo). Give me a shout if we can help.

Type to you later,

Thanks for the information. I'll be looking into it.

Hi Copperpot, I'm new here too and used to live in Japan. Whereabouts are you? There is a woman in Chiba who runs a yurt-based holiday operation. Perhaps you could ask her where she ordered from. Their place is called Reef Break Resort. Ganbatte!

Thanks for info Kiwi Yurti. I'll look her up. Ganbarimasu

Hi Copperpot, I was wondering if you had any joy in finding yurts in Japan? I would like to purchase a couple for a project here in Tottori Prefecture.

Many thanks!
