Santiaoshi Subdistrict (simplified Chinese: 三条石街道; traditional Chinese: 三條石街道; pinyin: Sāntiáoshí Jiēdào) is a subdistrict in southeastern Hongqiao District, Tianjin, China. It shares border with Xigu and Xinkaihe Subdistricts in its north, Hongshunli Subdistrict in its east, Gulou and Jieyuan Subdistricts in its south, and Shaogongzhuang Subdistrict in its west. Its population was 19,255 in 2010.^[1]

In 1870, the then Viceroy of Zhili Li Hongzhang paved a local street with 3 rows of limestone for his wife's funeral procession. The area was named Santaioshi (Chinese: 三条石; lit. 'Three Row Stones') as a result.^[2]
