Xiangshan Subdistrict (Chinese: 香山街道; pinyin: Xiāngshān Jiēdào) is a subdistrict situated on the western portion of Haidian District, Beijing, China. It borders Wenquan and Xibeiwan Towns in its north, Qinglongqiao Subdistrict in its east, Sijiqing Town and Wulituo Subdistrict in its south, and Junzhuang Town in its west. In 2020, it had 27,614 inhabitants under its administration.[1]

This subdistrict got its name from Xiangshan (Fragrant Hills) (Chinese: 香山; pinyin: Xiāngshān) in the subdistrict.[2] The name derives from the highest peak of Fragrant Hills, Xianglu Feng (Incense Burner Peak), a 557-meter (1,827 ft) hill with two large stones resembling incense burners at the top.
