In order to create a stable non-linear optical effect with high efficiency for a plurality of input lights having different wavelengths, according to a first aspect of the present invention, provided is a wavelength conversion apparatus comprising an input section into which input light is input; a wavelength converting section that includes a polarity inverting structure whose polarity inverts periodically and that, in response to the input of light having a wavelength corresponding to the period with which the polarity inverts, converts the wavelength of the light; and a direction changing section that changes a progression direction in which the input light passes through the polarity inverting structure, according to the wavelength of the input light, without changing relative positions of the input section and the polarity inverting structure. Also provided are a light source apparatus and a wavelength converting method.
