Touch panel
A touch panel includes a bending region which is at least one region which is bendable in the touch panel based on an axis; a flat region which is a region which is not bendable in the touch panel; a first unit conductive pattern formed in the flat region and configured to sense a touch; and a second unit conductive pattern formed in the bending region and configured to sense the touch. A dimension of the second unit conductive pattern is smaller than that of the first unit conductive pattern due to an opening portion formed in the second unit conductive pattern.
