The Shenhe District is one of ten districts of Shenyang, the capital of Liaoning province and the largest urban center in Northeast China. Shenhe District is where Shenyang's old city (within the long-demolished city walls) resided, currently serves as the one of the two central districts of Shenyang (along with Heping Destrict) and hosts the seat of the City Government. It borders the Dadong District to the northeast, Hunnan District to the south, Heping District to the west, and Huanggu District to the northwest.
There are 11 subdistricts within the district.[3]
Shenhe District is also home to Northeast China's main railway hub, the Shenyang North Railway Station (locally known as the "North Station"). The railways leading to the station forms the border between Shenhe District and the neighbouring eastern portion of Huanggu District.
