Yanliang District is one of nine districts of Xi'an, the capital of Shaanxi province, China. The northernmost and least-populous[1] of Xi'an's county-level divisions, it borders the prefecture-level cities of Xianyang to the west and Weinan to the northeast and Lintong District to the south.
Yanliang District is home to the Xi'an Aircraft Industrial Corporation, a subsidiary of the Chinese state-owned aircraft manufacturing company AVIC. The company is involved in major military and civilian aircraft projects and operates an airfield on the company campus for aircraft testing and internal transportation. Entry into the campus as heavily restricted because of its heavy involvement with state and military information.

As of 2021, Yanliang District is divided to 7 subdistricts.[4]
