1. A lighting module, comprising:
a substrate;
a light source located on the substrate;
a first lens on which light emitted from the light source is to be incident; and
a first holder to which the substrate and the first lens are fixed, wherein
light exiting the first lens is substantially parallel light that is substantially parallel to the optical axis when viewed from a first direction intersecting an optical axis of the light source,
the light exiting the first lens is substantially parallel light oblique to the optical axis when viewed from a second direction intersecting the optical axis and the first direction,
a first end part of the first lens in the second direction is fixed to the first holder, and
when viewed from a third direction in which the optical axis extends, the first holder does not protrude outward of the first lens in the second direction.
