Chengguan Subdistrict (Chinese: 城关街道; pinyin: Chéngguān Jiēdào) is a subdistrict on the eastern side of Fangshan District, Beijing, China. It borders Yingfeng, XIngyang, Dongfeng Subdistricts to the north, Qinglonghu Town to the northeast, Yancun and Doudian Towns to the east, Shilou Town to the south, Yingfeng Subdistrict and Zhoukoudian Town to the west. Its total population was 121,242 as of 2020.[1]

The name Chengguan (Chinese: 城关; lit. 'City Pass') refers to the region's historical location near the city gate.[2] Since a lot of places in China inherited their names from a time when city gates still existed, the name Chengguan appears in many of them, including Qingdao, Lanzhou, Lhasa, among others.
