A light-emitting element with improved heat resistance is provided without losing its advantages such as thinness, lightness, and low power consumption. A light-emitting element is provided which includes a first electrode, a second electrode, and an EL layer between the first electrode and the second electrode, in which the EL layer includes a layer containing a condensed aromatic compound or a condensed heteroaromatic compound, and a layer containing 2,9-bis(naphthalen-2-yl)-4,7-diphenyl-1,10-phenanthroline (abbreviation: NBPhen) in contact with the layer containing the condensed aromatic compound or the condensed heteroaromatic compound.
