A pressure vessel includes a liner and a reinforcing layer. The liner includes a body portion having a cylindrical shape. The liner is configured such that a gas is filled in the liner. The reinforcing layer is made of a material having a linear expansion coefficient lower than a linear expansion coefficient of a material of the liner. The reinforcing layer is formed in contact with an outer surface of the body portion. The reinforcing layer is configured to cover the liner from outside the liner. A thickness of the body portion is set to such a value that the outer surface of the body portion is not separated from the reinforcing layer when the gas that has been filled in the liner is discharged out of the liner.
