Wangsiying Area (Chinese: 王四营地区; pinyin: Wángsìyíng Dìqū) is an area and township located on the southern part of Chaoyang District, Beijing, China. It borders Gaobeidian Township to the north, Dougezhuang to the east, Fatou Subdistrict and Shibalidian Township to the south, and Nanmofang Township to the west. In the year 2020, it has a total population of 127,268.[1]

The area was named Wangsiying (Chinese: 王四营; lit. 'Wang Four Barrack') after the village where the township government is located. The village in turn was named so for its origin as a station for military personnel.[2]
