Liquid crystal display device

A liquid crystal display device comprising:

• a pair of transparent substrates which are arranged to face each other in an opposed manner with a liquid crystal layer sandwiched therebetween;
• a non-self-luminous display part having at least a light transmitting region which allows light to pass therethrough and a light shielding region which shields light;
• and
• a backlight part which irradiates backlight light from a back surface side of the non-self-luminous display part, wherein
• out of the pair of transparent substrates, the transparent substrate which is arranged on a backlight part side includes a reflection film formed of a metal thin film in which an opening region corresponding to the light transmitting region is formed on a liquid crystal layer side of the transparent substrate on the backlight part side, and
• the backlight light which is incident on the opening region passes through the opening region and reaches the liquid crystal layer side, and the backlight light which is incident on a region where the reflection film is formed is reflected toward the backlight part side.
