The liquid crystal display device of the present invention includes a first substrate, a second substrate, and a liquid crystal layer sandwiched by the first and second substrates. The first substrate includes polymer walls made of a transparent resin, the liquid crystal layer has a plurality of liquid crystal regions separated from one another by the polymer walls, and liquid crystal molecules in the plurality of liquid crystal regions are aligned axially symmetrically with respect to respective axes formed in the plurality of liquid crystal regions, the axes being vertical to a surface of the first substrate, and liquid crystal molecules above the polymer walls are aligned axially symmetrically with respect to respective axes formed on the polymer walls, the axes being vertical to the surface of the first substrate.
