An exposure apparatus has a first land surface (75) facing a surface of a substrate and surrounding a light path space (K1) for exposure light; a second land surface (76) facing the surface of the substrate and provided outside, in a predetermined direction, the first land surface (75); and a recovery opening (22) for recovering liquid to be placed in the light path space (K1). The first land surface (75) is provided in substantially parallel to the surface of the substrate. The second land surface (76) is provided at a position further from the surface of the substrate than the position of the first land surface (75). The recovery opening (22) is formed outside first land surface (75) and the second land surface (76). Even when the substrate is exposed while being moved, the light path space for the exposure light can be filled with the liquid to a desired state. |
