An exhaust gas purification including: a base of wall flow structure having inlet side cells wherein an end on the exhaust gas inflow side is open and outlet side cells wherein an end on the exhaust gas outflow side is open, and a porous partition wall that partitions the side cells; and first and second catalyst layers disposed in the interior of the porous partition wall so as to be in contact with the side cells, wherein either of the catalyst layers contains an oxidation catalyst but does not contain a reduction catalyst, and the other contains the reduction catalyst but does not contain the oxidation catalyst; and a ratio of the lengths of the catalyst layers differs between a surface of the porous partition wall on the side in contact with the inlet side cells and a surface on the side in contact with the outlet side cells.
