In addition, an interlayer is provided on a joining portion of the substrate and the flow path forming member and provided so as to protrude from between the substrate and the flow path forming member into the flow path, and a protection layer including metal is formed so as to cover the element. The interlayer is not disposed on a boundary portion between the pressure chamber and the flow path, and the protection layer is disposed at least on the boundary portion.
