Abstract
A liquid crystal display panel () according to the present invention includes a plurality of spacers configured to hold a gap between a first substrate () and a second substrate (). The plurality of spacers include a plurality of first spacers in a display region and a plurality of second spacers () in a non-display region. The first substrate includes a first metal layer () and a second metal layer (), a first transparent conductive layer () formed on the second metal layer and in direct contact with the second metal layer, a second inorganic insulating layer () formed on the first transparent conductive layer, and an organic insulating layer () formed on the second inorganic insulating layer. When viewed from the normal direction of the first substrate, each of the plurality of spacers overlaps with the first transparent conductive layer and the second inorganic insulating layer, and overlaps with the first metal layer and/or the second metal layer. Each of the plurality of spacers includes a part of the organic insulating layer.
