B335 is now recognized as the smallest isolated star forming region. The detection of a Far-IR source and a bipolar flow were succesful, on the other hand, the distribution of the quiet gas is poorly understood. We are trying to determine the density distribution in B335. As the first step, we have carried out HC3N (J = 5-4 and 4-3) observations of B335. The observations of the J = 5-4 line have revealed a high density core with a 30″-60″ size. The Far-IR source is located just at the center of the core, and the core lies at the center of the bipolar flow. A mean hydrogen molecular density in the core of about 5x104 cm−3 is derived from the line ratio J – 5-4/4-3.
