A display panel includes a first substrate, a second substrate, and a cover plate which are horizontally stacked on each other and together define a side connection region extending vertically on outer surfaces of lateral end portions of the first substrate, the second substrate, and the cover plate. An electrically conductive connection layer and an electrical functional assembly electrically connected to the same are placed on the side connection region. Insulating layers and conductive layers between them are on the first substrate, a lateral end portion of at least one of the conductive layers is provided with a bonding pad extended to the side connection region and electrically connected to the electrically conductive connection layer, so as to establish electrical connection between the electrical functional assembly and the conductive layers. The display panel can effectively shorten a width of its edge, and realize a “narrow bezel” design.
