An active matrix substrate has: scanning lines extending in row direction and image data lines extending in column direction, formed in display area; semiconductor islands at each cross point and in peripheral circuit area; a first gate insulating film formed on each pixel semiconductor island; a first gate made of a first wiring layer and formed on said first gate insulating film; a second gate insulating film thinner than the first gate insulating film formed on peripheral circuit semiconductor island; and a second gate electrode made of a second wiring layer and formed on the second gate insulating film, wherein the pixel transistor semiconductor island, first gate insulating film and first gate electrode constitute a pixel transistor, and the scanning line includes a lower layer made of the second wiring line and an upper layer made of the first wiring line connected to the lower layer.
