A liquid crystal display device includes a liquid crystal layer 1 whose state is switchable between a light-transmitting state and a light-scattering state, a front substrate 3 and a rear substrate 2 between which the liquid crystal layer 1 is held, a pair of electrodes 4, 8 between which the liquid crystal layer 1 is interposed and which are configured to apply a voltage across the liquid crystal layer 1, and first and second alignment films 13, 12 respectively provided between the liquid crystal layer 1 and the front substrate 3 and between the liquid crystal layer 1 and the rear substrate 2. The liquid crystal layer 1 includes, in each of the pixels, a continuous wall 10, a plurality of small sections 14 separated by the wall 10, and a plurality of liquid crystal regions 11, each of which is formed in any one of the plurality of small sections 14. The plurality of liquid crystal regions 11 include first and second liquid crystal regions 11 which have directors 20 in a plane parallel to the liquid crystal layer 1. The directors 20 of the first and second liquid crystal regions 11 are oriented in different directions.
