The treatment tool insertion channel is inserted into the insertion unit. The treatment tool outlet is connected to a distal end of the treatment tool insertion channel. The elevator is rotatable about a rotating shaft between a standing position and a fallen position, and includes a guide surface guiding a treatment tool led out of the treatment tool outlet. The plurality of walls encloses a space in which the elevator is housed, wherein a first wall, which is opposite to the guide surface in a case where the elevator is in the standing position, among the plurality of walls is made of a material harder than at least a second wall among the plurality of walls.
