Huilongguan Subdistrict (simplified Chinese: 回龙观街道; traditional Chinese: 回龍觀街道; pinyin: Huílóngguān Jiēdào) is a subdistrict situated within the 6th Ring Road and Changping District, Beijing, China. It borders Shigezhuang, Longzeyuan and Huoying Subdistricts in its north, Xisanqi Subdistrict in its east and south, Dongsheng Town and Qinghe Subdistrict in its south, and Xibeiwang Town in its west. Its total population was 166,074 in the 2020 census.
This region used to host a Taoist temple named Xuanfu Palace, which was constructed under the mandate of Hongzhi Emperor in 1504. After its completion in 1516, the temple served as a stopping point for Ming emperors on their way to hold memorial services for their ancestors. Since Chinese emperors were often referred to as Chinese dragons, the temple and the region surrounding it later earned the name of Huilongguan (Chinese: 回龙观; lit. 'Returning Dragon Temple').
