Abstract

A vehicle lamp is provided with a light source (21) and a lens (31, 32, 31A, 32A). The lens (31, 32, 31A, 32A) is formed in a bowl shape having a central bottom (34a) faces to the light source (21). The lens (31, 32, 31A, 32A) is provided with a forward illuminating region (A0, A1, A2) and a sideward illuminating region (A3). The forward illuminating region (A0, A1, A2) is positioned on the bottom (34a) and a part (34c, 34d, 35d, 30c) of peripheral regions of the lens and configured to irradiate a part of a light from the light source (21) in a forward direction along an optical axis (Ox) of the lamp. The sideward illuminating region (A3) is positioned on an another part (35f, 35g, 35h, 37c) of the peripheral regions of the lens and configured to irradiate an another part of the light from the light source (21) in a sideward direction of the lamp.
