Multilayer structure, container, and food packaging container

A multilayer structure comprising:

• an ethylene-vinyl alcohol copolymer layer (A);
• and
• a polyethylene resin layer (B),
• wherein
• the polyethylene resin layer (B) comprises a polyethylene resin having a density of from 0.850 to 0.920 g/cm3,
• the polyethylene resin in the polyethylene resin layer (B) has a content greater than 80 mass %, and
• the polyethylene resin contained in the polyethylene resin layer (B) has a weight average molecular weight of 230000 or greater when calibrated with polystyrene.
