Engawa
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Engawa (縁側 or 掾側) refers to the typically wooden strip of flooring immediately before windows and storm shutters inside traditional Japanese rooms.[1] Recently this term has also come to mean the veranda outside of the room as well, which was traditionally referred to as a nure'en (濡れ縁).[2]
