A display unit which displays a plurality of objects viewed as being
located at different depthwise positions by the viewer so as to exhibit
an image with depthwise feeling, includes: a single display portion
including a far-distant display zone and a near-distant display zone, a
polarized beam splitting element in front of the near-distant display
zone, a polarized beam changing element in front of the far-distant
display zone, and a total reflection mirror for reflecting an image beam
emitted from the far-distant display zone, onto the polarized beam
splitting element. An image beam emitted from the far-distant display
zone is transmitted through the polarized beam changing element, then is
reflected at the total reflection mirror, and thereafter is reflected by
the polarized beam splitting element before it is viewed by the viewer.
