Fengdu Dadi (Chinese: 酆都大帝; pinyin: Fēngdū Dàdì), also known as the Great Emperor of Fengdu, the Great Emperor of Beiyin (北陰大帝), or Beidi (北帝), is a supreme deity in Daoist mythology and Chinese folk religion. He is revered as the supreme ruler of the Underworld and the overlord of all ghosts and spirits. His mythological capital is situated at Mount Luofeng (羅酆山), a conceptual realm in the extreme north, which later became conflated with the real-world county of Fengdu Ghost City in Sichuan, giving rise to the famous "Ghost City" (鬼城) of Fengdu. Like other Underworld deities such as the Great Emperor of Dongyue, Kṣitigarbha (Dizang), and Yanluo Wang, Fengdu Dadi rules the Underworld. However, he represents the Daoist administrative view of the afterlife.
