Abstract
Provided is a technique capable of reducing the possibility that liquid reaches a visual check face. A liquid container includes a liquid retaining portion that can retain liquid and has an injection port forming face in which a liquid injection port is arranged, a visual check face that intersects the injection port forming face and through which a liquid surface in the liquid containing portion can be visually checked from the outside, and a container guiding path that guides the liquid existing in the injection port forming face in a direction different from a direction toward the visual check face.
