A liquid crystal display panel includes an array substrate including a scanning line, a signal line crossing the scanning line, a switching element electrically connected to the scanning line and the signal line, and a pixel electrode formed on the scanning line, the signal line, and the switching element and electrically connected to the switching element, an opposite substrate including a common electrode with a through-hole and arranged opposite to the array substrate with a gap, a columnar spacer formed on either one of the array substrate and the opposite substrate and positioned away from the pixel electrode, the columnar spacer overlapping the through-hole and holding the gap between the array substrate and the opposite substrate, and a liquid crystal layer sandwiched between the array substrate and the opposite substrate.
