A liquid crystal display device of an OCB mode includes a liquid crystal layer held between an array substrate and a counter-substrate, a display section composed of a plurality of display pixels arrayed in a matrix, and a peripheral section surrounding the display section. The array substrate includes pixel electrodes which are disposed in association with the plurality of display pixels. The counter-substrate includes a counter-electrode which is opposed to the plurality of pixel electrodes. The liquid crystal display device includes a pair of alignment films which are disposed on the plurality of pixel electrodes and the counter-electrode, respectively, the pair of alignment films controlling, by rubbing treatment, an alignment state of liquid crystal molecules included in the liquid crystal layer. The peripheral section includes a splay region, which splay-aligns the liquid crystal molecules, at least on a terminal-end side in a rubbing direction of the alignment film.
