The invention relates to a liquid sensor which can certainly judge the existence of liquid, and a liquid container including the sensor. A liquid sensor 60 in which a piezoelectric element having a piezoelectric layer 47 on both surfaces of which electrodes 46 and 49 are formed is used, and a bottom 43a of a cavity 43 for receiving liquid as a detection object is vibrated. The sensor 60 includes a vibration cavity forming base portion 40 in which the cavity 43 having the vibratable bottom 43a is formed, and a flow path forming base portion 50 laminated on the vibration cavity forming base portion 40. A liquid supply path 53 for supplying the liquid as the detection object to the cavity 43 and a liquid discharge path 54 for discharging the liquid as the detection object from the cavity 43 are formed in the flow path forming base portion 50.
