The invention discloses a narrow frame display panel and a manufacturing method thereof. The narrow frame display panel comprises an array substrate, a counter-direction substrate, liquid crystals, aflexible circuit board and a driving chip, wherein the part between the array substrate and the counter-direction substrate is filled with the liquid crystals, the side at which the array substrate ispositioned is a light emitting surface, and one end of the array substrate is a binding end; one end of flexible circuit board is bound to the surface, the binding end, which faces to the counter-direction substrate, and the other end of the flexible circuit is bound with the driving chip; the surface, facing to the counter-direction substrate, of the array substrate is provided with a metal filmlayer with hollow patterns, and a plurality of spacing pillars are convexly arranged on the surface, facing to the array substrate, of the counter-direction substrate, and extend to prop against themetal film layer. According to the display panel provided by the invention, the flexible circuit board cannot be seen from the outer side, so that the width of a narrow frame is narrowed, and the screen occupying ratio is increased; meanwhile, through the propping of the spacing pillars and the corresponding part of the hollow patterns of the metal film layer at the inner side of the array substrate, the assembly process of the substrates of the display panel can be realized by assistance, and the assembly precision is increased.
