A virtual image display device is provided. Included in the virtual image display device are: an image light generating device; a projection optical system configured to project image light emitted from the image light generating device; a folding mirror configured to reflect, in an intersecting direction, the image light from the projection optical system; a semi-transmissive mirror configured to reflect a portion of the image light from the folding mirror; a concave surface mirror configured to reflect, toward the semi-transmissive mirror, the image light reflected at the semi-transmissive mirror to form an exit pupil, in which an entrance pupil is formed between the projection optical system and the semi-transmissive mirror.
