'''Andingmen''' ({{Zh|s=安定门|t=安定門|p=Āndìngmén|l=Gate of Stability}}) was a gate in [[Beijing]]'s [[Ming dynasty|Ming]]-era [[Beijing city fortifications|city wall]], which were built to protect the emperor and people against northern invaders. Like so many others, the gate was torn down in the 1950s.<ref>{{cite web |url=https://www.chinadaily.com.cn/cndy/2008-12/13/content_7301164.htm |title=The gatekeepers |website=www.chinadaily.com.cn |date=13 December 2008 |access-date=11 June 2025}}</ref><br />

Where the gate once stood is now Andingmen Bridge, a [[roundabout]] overpass on the northern [[2nd Ring Road (Beijing)|2nd Ring Road]]. The overpass links Andingmen Inner Street, which runs south of the overpass inside the walled city, and Andingmen Outer Street, which runs north away from the wall of the city. <br />

[[Beijing Public Bus|Bus]] and [[Beijing trolleybus|trolleybus]] stops are nearby, along with [[Andingmen Station]], [[Line 2 (Beijing Subway)|Line 2]] of the [[Beijing Subway]].<ref>{{cite web |url=https://www.beijingtrip.com/transport/subway-line2.htm |title=Beijing Subway Line 2 |website=www.beijingtrip.com |access-date=11 June 2025}}</ref><br />
