A light guide body includes a first rod-like light guide portion and second rod-like light guide portions which are spaced from the first rod-like light guide portion in the vertical direction and plate-like light guide portions which are disposed so as to link their circumferential surfaces. Light that reaches the first rod-like light guide portion via the plate-like light guide portions after being emitted from light sources and entering the second rod-like light guide portions is emitted forward of the lamp from the circumferential surface of the first rod-like light guide portion.
