Liquid crystal display includes a first substrate which includes a pixel electrode disposed in each pixel, a second substrate which faces the first substrate and includes a common electrode and an insulating layer, and a liquid crystal layer which is disposed between the first substrate and the second substrate, where the common electrode includes a first common electrode which is disposed on the whole surface defining the second substrate and a second common electrode which is disposed on the first common electrode with the insulating layer interposed therebetween and includes an opening defined in each pixel, and each pixel includes a first region in which the pixel electrode and the first common electrode face each other through the opening and a second region in which the pixel electrode and the second common electrode face each other.
