Yangzhen Area (simplified Chinese: 杨镇地区; traditional Chinese: 楊鎮地區; pinyin: Yángzhèn Dìqū) or Yang Town (simplified Chinese: 杨镇; traditional Chinese: 楊鎮; pinyin: Yáng Zhèn) is an area and a town located within Shunyi District, Beijing, China. It shares border with Mulin and Longwantun Towns to its north, Zhang Town to its east, Dasungezhuang and Beiwu Towns to its south, Beisui and Nancai Towns to its west, and Beixiaoying Town to its northwest.
