Embodiments of a liquid crystal display panel include a first substrate, a second substrate and a liquid crystal layer interposed between the first substrate and the second substrate. The first substrate may include a color filter layer covering a thin-film transistor and having a recess portion. The second substrate may include a first spacer making contact with the first substrate and a second spacer disposed at a position corresponding to the recess portion of the color filter layer to be separated from the first substrate. The first substrate may further include a protrusion pattern formed under the recess portion of the color filter layer. The second spacer may be correspondingly disposed at a position where the recess portion and the protrusion pattern are formed.
