PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an easy-to-manufacture virtual image display device which has a simple configuration, and an optical element. ! SOLUTION: A virtual image display device 1 includes an image forming section which emits light L, and an expansion optical section 5 which receives the light L emitted from the image forming section and expands the light L in a two-dimensional manner. The expansion optical section 5 includes: an incident section where the light L is made incident; a first light guide plate 51 having a first principal surface 511 arranged obliquely with respect to an incident direction in which the light L is made incident on the incident section, and a partially transmissive reflection surface 200 arranged in parallel with the first principal surface 511, to reflect a part of the light L and transmit the part of the light L; a second light guide plate 52 which guides the light L which has transmitted through the partially transmissive reflection surface 200; and a light extractio |
