Line 16 of the Beijing Subway (Chinese: 北京地铁16号线; pinyin: běijīng dìtiě shíliù hàoxiàn) is a rapid transit rail line in Beijing. Line 16's route will run 49.7 km in far western Beijing, parallel and to the west of Line 4. Construction began in December 2013 and the first phase opened to passengers on 31 December 2016. The most recent change was the opening of Nongdananlu Station on December 30, 2017. The line is managed by the Beijing MTR Corporation Limited and uses eight-car high-capacity wide-body A-size trains. Line 16's color is      dark-moderate green.

In 2009, Line 16 was among the 198 major urban planning projects listed by the city’s development and reform commission. At that time, Line 16 was slated to run about 35 km from Huilongguan in Changping District to Huaxiang in Fengtai.

According to the June 2010 plans, the northern section of Line 16 will replace the originally planned Line 4 northern extension and run 48 km from Beianhe in Haidian District south to Xiaoyueyuan near the Marco Polo Bridge in Fengtai District. The line would begin near Beianhe, and provide access to parts of Haidian, north of the foothills the Western Hills that extend into district. For this reason, that section of the line was also referred to as the Haidian Shanhou (literal translation Haidian Back Mountain) Line because it begins on the backside of the low-lying range that extends from the Fragrant Hills to the Summer Palace. Points of interest that the line may pass along route to Xiaoyueyuan in the south include the Summer Palace, Haidian Gymnasium, National Library, Purple Bamboo Park, Beijing Zoo, Chegongzhuang West Road, Sanlihe, Wanshou Temple, Lize Financial District, and the Fengtai railway station. The proposal was scaled back with the removal of the Haidian Shanhou section in December 2010. Reducing the line to just 23 km, from Suzhoujie to Wanping, but the northern section was subsequently restored months later, bringing the line length 49 km.
