{{Short description|Gate in Beijing, China}} {{mcn|date=June 2025}} thumb|Andingmen in 1860 thumb|right|Atop the city wall at Andingmen in 1860 '''Andingmen''' ({{Zh|s=安定门|t=安定門|p=Āndìngmén|l=Gate of Stability}}) was a gate in Beijing's Ming-era 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>
Where the gate once stood is now Andingmen Bridge, a roundabout overpass on the northern 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.
Bus and trolleybus stops are nearby, along with Andingmen Station, 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>
