The present invention provides a liquid crystal panel and a liquid crystal display device allowing reliability deterioration due to external pressure to be suppressed without yield rate degradation. The liquid crystal panel includes: a pair of substrates facing each other with a space in between; a liquid crystal layer disposed in the space between the pair of substrates; and a plurality of pairs of pillar structures, each pair of pillar structures being arranged on opposing faces of the pair of substrates, respectively, to face each other along a normal to the opposing faces.
