A light emitting diode (LED) lamp includes an emission unit comprising one or more LED light-emitting devices and a circuit substrate whereon the one or more LED light-emitting devices are mounted; a heat dissipating member whereon the emission unit is mounted and that dissipates heat generated by the emission unit; and a light-transmitting lamp cover directly contacting the heat dissipating member and coupled with the heat dissipating member so as to cover the emission unit, wherein the lamp cover is formed of a light-transmitting material having a thermal conductivity equal to or greater than 9 W/m·K -1 .
