Inside the traditional Japanese house, Doma

Visiting the inside of a traditional Japanese farmhouse, you will find two distinct zones: one with a wooden floor, raised from the ground to accommodate the irori fireplace, and one covered only by compacted earth, called doma.

This is where the cooking takes place (with an oven clay called kamado), where the water reserve is held and you will often find here traditional items like the kasa straw hats or straw rain coats.
