A light source capable of emitting light of which intensity is uniform throughout its length. A light source (1a) includes a fluorescent lamp (2) including a tube body (21) having a substantially linear shape and discharging electrodes (221, 222) disposed at both ends in an axial direction of the tube body, and a light guiding member (11a) having a substantially transparent color, a length in an axial direction shorter than a length in the axial direction of the tube body, and a linear shape, wherein the light guiding member is attached on an outer surface of the tube body at a section closer to one end in the axial direction of the tube body of the fluorescent lamp such that one end of the light guiding member is disposed close to the discharging electrode 222 at the one end of the fluorescent lamp. |
