Chencang District simplified Chinese: 陈仓区; traditional Chinese: 陳倉區; pinyin: Chéncāng Qū, is a district of the city of Baoji, Shaanxi province, China.

Chencang is the former name of Baoji, which was given to the district. The district makes up the outer areas of Baoji, most of the area being rural. In 2020, the Baoji High-tech Zone was established in the district.

After the founding of the People's Republic of China, it came under the jurisdiction of the Baoji region and was called Baoji County. In October 1971, Baoji District was abolished and Baoji prefecture level city was established, to which Baoji County belonged. In March 2003, the State Council approved the abolition of Baoji County and the establishment of Chencang District in Baoji City.[1]
