Dongling District (simplified Chinese: 东陵区; traditional Chinese: 東陵區; pinyin: Dōnglíng Qū) is a suburban district of Shenyang, the capital of Liaoning province, People's Republic of China. The district contains 12 subdistricts of Shenyang proper, 6 towns, 1 rural township, and 1 ethnic rural township.
The name Dongling refers to the Eastern Tomb, or Fuling Tomb, that are in fact two Qing tombs: of the first emperor of Qing Dynasty Nurhachi and his empress (a UNESCO site).
The district is rapidly becoming a developed, high-end residential area, as the suburbs of Shenyang are growing steadily. There are two corridors along two major highways, one leading to the eastern tomb and Fushun, the other leading to the international airport, along which one can see luxury apartments, fine neighborhoods and sleek commercial development quickly coming into shape.
The district contains 12 subdistricts, 6 towns, 1 township, and 1 ethnic township.
