A liquid crystal display includes a substrate, and a pixel electrode disposed on the substrate. The pixel electrode includes a plurality of micro-branches which are spaced apart from each other and extend side by side with each other, where a micro-slit is defined between the micro-branches, and a stem part which is connected to each of the micro-branches, where an indentation pattern is defined by a cutout portion extending into the stem part, and at least one of two points connecting the indentation pattern and the micro-slit is located on a slit boundary line at which the micro-slit and the stem part meet each other.
