A dye-sensitized solar cell comprises a metal substrate, a photosensitive dye, a transparent substrate, an insulating unit and an electrolytic solution. The metal substrate is made of titanium or titanium alloy and is used as an anode. A titanium dioxide (TiO<SUB>2</SUB>) thin film is provided on the surface of the metal substrate, and consists of a plurality of arranged TiO<SUB>2 </SUB>nanotubes. The photosensitive dye is absorbed on the surface of the metal substrate. A cathode is provided on a surface of the transparent substrate whose transparent part is a euphotic zone through which light can be irradiated to the photosensitive dye. The insulating unit is located between the anode and the cathode. The electrolytic solution fills the space between the anode and the cathode and surrounded by the insulating unit. A method for manufacturing the same is also disclosed.
