Ningqiang County (simplified Chinese: 宁强县; traditional Chinese: 寧強縣; pinyin: Níngqiáng Xiàn) is a county and both the southwesternmost and westernmost county-level division of Shaanxi province, China, bordering both Sichuan and Gansu.

[2] Ningqiang is one of the counties with a sizable number of Qiang and Yi minorities.

[3][4][5] As a result of the 2008 Sichuan earthquake, 500 buildings in the county collapsed and seven people were killed, making it the worst hit area in Shaanxi.

[6] The county executive, legislature and judiciary are in Hanyuan Subdistrict (汉源街道); though like many shiretowns it is conventionally also known as Chengguan (城关镇), together with the CPC and PSB branches.

The G5 Beijing-Kunming expressway and National Highway 108 both pass through Ningqiang.
