A liquid crystal display device includes a liquid crystal display panel. A drive circuit part is formed in the display panel. The drive circuit has a switching device with thin film transistors. The transistors commonly use one gate electrode and are connected in parallel. The switching device includes a gate electrode, a gate insulating film covering the gate electrode, a semiconductor pattern which overlaps the gate electrode with the gate insulating film therebetween, and source and drain electrodes which are formed on the semiconductor pattern and face each other. The source and drain electrodes, as well as a channel between the source and drain electrodes, are bent in the same direction.
