The Japan RV Association is promoting a network of paid overnight facilities called 'RV Park' for motorhome and camper van users. The parks offer spacious sites for stays up to a week, with access to 24-hour toilets, 100V power, waste disposal, and often shower facilities. One example is the 'Manshouen Aiueo-no-Mori' park adjacent to the Yamashiro hot springs in Ishikawa Prefecture.
