Folding Beijing (simplified Chinese: 北京折叠; traditional Chinese: 北京折疊; lit. 'Beijing Folds') is a science fiction novelette by the Chinese writer Hao Jingfang.

This work was originally posted on newsmth.net, the BBS of Tsinghua University, in December 2012. It took the author around 1 month to plan, and 3 days to write.[1] It was later published in two Chinese magazines in 2014.

An English translation by Ken Liu was published in 2015 on Uncanny Magazine.[2] It won the 2016 Hugo Award for Best Novelette.

In September 2020 it was announced that Folding Beijing will be adapted into a movie titled Folding City, produced by Chinese film production company Wanda Media and is expected to be released between 2021 and 2022.[3]
