Ahyeon-dong () is a dong (neighborhood) of Mapo District, Seoul, South Korea.
==History== During the Joseon Dynasty, the area was part of Seobu Bansongbang in Hansungbu and belonged to the Ahyeon-gye (阿峴契), Chajari-gye (車子里契), and Gwonjeongseung-gye (權政丞契) communities. In 1914, it became Ahyeon-ri (阿峴里) in Yonggang-myeon (龍江面), Goyang-gun, Gyeonggi-do. In 1936, it was reorganized as Ahyeon-jeong (阿峴町) under Gyeongseongbu. On June 1, 1943, it was incorporated into Seodaemun-gu, and on October 23, 1944, into Mapo-gu.
