A projection type video display is provided with three LED light sources. A first LED light source emits a light in red, a second LED light source emits a light in green, and a third LED light source emits a light in blue. Lights in respective colors emitted from each LED light source are guided into a light incidence surface of a rod integrator by a cross dichroic mirror. The cross dichroic mirror is formed of a first cross dichroic mirror portion and a second dichroic mirror portion. The first cross dichroic mirror portion is divided into two portions, and the second cross dichroic mirror portion, too, is divided into two portions. The cross dichroic mirror has structure of a cross arrangement in which these four divided portions bring respective corner sides into close contact.
