Fengxi District (simplified Chinese: 枫溪区; traditional Chinese: 楓溪區; pinyin: Fēngxī Qū; lit. 'Maple Creek District') was an administrative district under the jurisdiction of Chaozhou City in Guangdong Province, China, located in the western part of the Chaozhou urban area, near the border with Fujian Province. It covered a total area of 24.56 square kilometers, with a registered population of approximately 117,400, a total of 28,654 households, and a resident population of 158,114. The district administered 6 communities and 26 villages.
In December 1995, Fengxi Town (楓溪鎮) of Chao’an County was dissolved and reorganized into a county‑level administrative district named Fengxi District. The new district's jurisdiction included Fengxi Town of Chao’an County, the Chaozhou Railway Station area, and the Chihu (池湖) and Cailong (蔡隴) administrative zones, which were carved out from Fengxin Subdistrict (鳳新街道) of Xiangqiao District (湘橋區).
