A great hall with a well-shaped structure
The beam arrangement in the upper part of the atrium is made of wood of uniform size and curvature and coated with lacquer (Wajima lacquer). The ceiling is a gorgeous one with black lacquer and gold leaf on the face of the ceiling.

The hall and ante-hall as seen from the seat of the fisherman's master.
At the back of the front hall is a ceremonial platform, and in a straight line is the harbor of Tomari.
From here, they waited for the fishermen to return with their big fishing flags.
