Abstract
The flush toilet of the present invention includes a bowl which receives waste; and a discharge trap conduit which is connected to a lower portion of the bowl and extends to a discharge opening connected to an inlet of an external discharge pipe and a part of which stores sealing water. The discharge trap conduit includes: an ascending conduit which ascends rearward from the lower portion of the bowl; and a descending conduit that descends from a downstream end of the ascending conduit to the discharge opening. The descending conduit includes a bottom surface on the rear side of the discharge opening and a guiding portion formed on the bottom surface which guides the wastewater flowing horizontally from the bottom surface toward the discharge opening to be directed to either a left or right side of the center of the discharge opening.
