A liquid crystal display device (100) includes a liquid crystal display cell (10), a light-transmitting cover (20) having a lens portion (22) and disposed on a viewer side, a backlight (40) disposed on an opposite side to the viewer side, a light diffusion layer (38) disposed between the backlight (40) and the light-transmitting cover (20), and a refraction-index adjusting layer (28) that fixes the liquid crystal display cell (10) and the light-transmitting cover (20) to each other. A refraction index difference between the light-transmitting cover (20) and the refraction-index adjusting layer (28) is smaller than a refraction index difference between the light-transmitting cover (20) and air.
