A wiring substrate includes an insulating layer including a projection and a wiring layer on the projection. The wiring layer includes a first metal layer on an end face of the projection and a second metal layer on the first metal layer. The width of the end face of the projection is different from at least one of the width of the first metal layer and the width of the second metal layer. An inner wall surface and a bottom surface of a depression around the projection are roughened surfaces.
