A light emitting device includes at least one LED package, and at least one light transmissive sealing member. Each of the at least one LED package includes a light emitting element, a wavelength converter, and a reflection member. The light emitting element is mounted on a mounting surface of a base and electrically connected to a conductor wiring. The wavelength converter is provided on an upper surface of the light emitting element. The reflection member covers a side surface and a lower surface of the light emitting element. Each of the at least one light transmissive sealing member includes a light diffusion material and covers each of the at least one LED package. Each of the at least one light transmissive sealing member has a projection shape with a substantially circular bottom surface facing the base and with a height in the light axis direction of the light emitting element.
