The invention discloses a gate scanning circuit and a display panel. The gate scanning circuit comprises N shift registers arranged sequentially in the first direction, wherein N is a positive integer more than 4; the shift register has a first scanning sequence control end, a second scanning sequence control end, a first input end, a second input end and an output end; the N shift registers are sequentially a first-stage shift register to an N-stage shift register in the first direction; for the n-stage shift register, the first scanning sequence control end is connected with the output end of the n-c-stage shift register, the second scanning sequence control end is connected with the output end of the n+d-stage shift register, the first input end is connected with the output end of the n-a-stage shift register, and the second input end is connected with the output end of the n+b-stage shift register. The technical solution solves the problem of direct current bias of the gate scanning circuit, and improves the stability and the reliability.
