The liquid crystal display device of the invention includes a plurality of pixels each having a first electrode, a second electrode facing the first electrode, and a vertically aligned liquid crystal layer placed between the first and second electrodes. The device includes ribs in a stripe shape having a first width placed in the first electrode side of the liquid crystal layer; slits in a stripe shape having a second width placed in the second electrode side of the liquid crystal layer; and liquid crystal regions in a stripe shape having a third width defined between the ribs and the slits. The third width is in a range between 2 μm and 14 μm. The liquid crystal regions include at least one each of four liquid crystal regions A to D in which liquid crystal molecules tilt in directions different from one another by 90° each.
