SOLUTION: A portion close to the distal end of the insertion section flexible tube is made of a flexible tube 11A having excellent durability and comprises a spiral tube 111 sheathed with a reticular tube 112 the outer face of which is covered with an outer tube 113. A rear portion of the insertion section flexible tube is made of a flexible tube 11B and comprises a flexible tube 114 arranged instead of the spiral tube 111, a reticular tube 115 covering the flexible tube, and an outer cover 116 covering the outer surface of the reticular tube.
