A display panel and a display apparatus are provided in the present disclosure. The display panel includes a plurality of pixel units, where the pixel unit at least includes a color pixel region and a highlighted pixel region. A side of the first substrate facing the second substrate includes a first light-blocking layer, and a side of the second substrate facing the first substrate includes a second light-blocking layer and a color-resist layer. A first light-blocking portion at least includes a first opening and a first sub-portion; and a second light-blocking portion at least includes a second sub-portion and a second opening. An orthographic projection of the second opening onto the first substrate overlaps an orthographic projection of the first sub-portion onto the first substrate; and an orthographic projection of the first opening onto the first substrate overlaps an orthographic projection of the second sub-portion onto the first substrate.
