Tanying Area (simplified Chinese: 檀营地区; traditional Chinese: 檀營地區; pinyin: Tányíng Dìqū) is an area and an ethnic township located in the Miyun District of Beijing, China.[1] Located on the south of Ye Mountain (冶山), it shares border with Mujiayu Town in its north and east, Gulou Subdistrict in its southwest, and Miyun Town in its northwest. In 2020, the area had 15,466 inhabitants under its administration.[2]

The name Tanying (Chinese: 檀营; lit. 'Tan Barrack') originates in 1777, when the region, which was called Tan Department (檀州) at the time, was used as a garrison for stationing Eight Banners troops.[3]
