The display panel of claim 1 , wherein a first distance from an upper surface of the substrate to the first upper surface, a second distance from the upper surface of the substrate to the second upper surface, and a third distance from the upper surface of the substrate to an upper surface of the first connection wall are equal to each other.
8 . The display panel of claim 2 , wherein a first distance from an upper surface of the substrate to the first upper surface, a second distance from the upper surface of the substrate to the second upper surface, a third distance from the upper surface of the substrate to an upper surface of the first connection wall, and a fourth distance between the upper surface of the substrate to an upper surface of the second connection wall are equal to each other.
9 . The display panel of claim 1 , wherein the opening area is disposed at a center of the substrate in the first direction.
10 . The display panel of claim 1 , wherein the first blocking wall has a same layer structure as the second blocking wall and includes a same material as the second blocking wall.
11 . The display panel of claim 1 , wherein the first blocking wall, the second blocking wall, and the first connection wall form an integral body.
12 . The display panel of claim 3 , wherein the first blocking wall, the second blocking wall, and the second connection wall form an integral body.
13 . The display panel of claim 1 , further comprising:
an inorganic insulating layer disposed on the substrate;
a first organic insulating layer disposed on the inorganic insulating layer; and
a pixel defining layer disposed on the first organic insulating layer.
14 . The display panel of claim 13 , wherein at least one of the first blocking wall and the second blocking wall has a same layer structure as the first organic insulating layer and the pixel defining layer, and includes a same material as the first organic insulating layer and the pixel defining layer.
15 . The display panel of claim 13 , wherein at least one of the first blocking wall and the second blocking wall includes:
a first sub-blocking wall having a same layer structure as the first organic insulating layer and having a same material as the first organic insulating layer; and
a second sub-blocking wall disposed on the first sub-blocking wall, having a same layer structure as the pixel defining layer, and having a same material as the pixel defining layer.
16 . A display panel comprising:
a substrate including opening area, a display area surrounding at least a portion of the opening area, and a middle area between the opening area and the display area, and having a first width in a first direction and a second width in a second direction intersecting with the first direction, wherein the first width is equal to or less than the second width;
an inorganic insulating layer disposed on the substrate; and
a blocking wall disposed on the inorganic insulating layer, arranged in the middle area to surround the opening area, and including a first opening and a second opening when viewed from a direction perpendicular to the substrate, wherein the first opening exposes a portion of the inorganic insulating layer, and the second opening exposes another portion of the inorganic insulating layer and is positioned to be symmetrical with the first opening with respect to a center of the opening area.
17 . The display panel of claim 16 , wherein the first opening and the second opening are disposed on a virtual straight line passing through the center of the opening area.
