A magnifying lens is arranged as follows: a two dimensional negative lens array composed of a plurality of negative lenses provided so that principal planes of the same are disposed on a same plane, and a two dimensional positive lens array composed of a plurality of positive lenses provided so that principal planes of the same are disposed on a same plane, are provided vis-a-vis so that each pair of corresponding negative and positive lenses and constitutes each compound lens. Each pair of the negative and positive lenses and constituting each compound lens is provided so that each straight line connecting respective principal points of each pair of negative and positive lenses intersects substantially at one point a predetermined distance away from the principal plane of the two-dimensional positive lens array. A display apparatus has an optical system which forms images and through which the observer observes the images with the naked eye, the optical system being provided in front of the eyes of the observer. The optical system includes an image display element and the magnifying lens of the present invention so that magnified images of the images displayed on the image display element are visible to the naked eye.
