An optical fiber bundle is used in a vehicle headlight, the optical fiber bundle being configured by binding a plurality of optical fibers. Each optical fiber can include a core having an incident end face on which a laser beam is made incident and an emission end face from which the laser beam is emitted. A clad can surround the core. Emission end faces of the respective plurality of optical fibers can be arranged adjacent to one another on a substantially same plane to create an emission end face group, an external shape of which is a substantial rectangle.
