Abstract
A curved tube in an endoscope is formed by flexibly connecting the curved pieces (62) to each other along the axial direction of the insertion part (12). The curved pieces are connected to each other through linear members (64) each having one end fixed to a first curved piece and the other end fixed to a second curved piece adjacent to the first curved piece and extending in the axial direction of the curved tube.
