A liquid crystal display (LCD) according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention includes: a first insulation substrate; a lower electrode disposed on the first insulation substrate; a second insulation substrate facing the first insulation substrate; an upper electrode disposed on the second insulation substrate and facing the lower electrode; and a liquid crystal layer disposed between the lower electrode and the upper electrode. The lower electrode forms one unit region, the unit region includes a plurality of subregions, and the lower electrode includes: a first lower electrode including a central pattern disposed at a center of a border between each pair of adjacent subregions, and a plurality of micro branch portions that are coupled to the central pattern, the micro branch portions of two different subregions extending in different directions; and a second lower electrode having intersecting elongated portions that each extend along parts of the border.
