Danyang (Chinese: 丹陽) was the first capital of the State of Chu. It is located near modern-day Xichuan County in Henan Province.

Following a number of battles with neighboring states the Chu capital moved to Ying, near modern-day Jingzhou City on the Jianghan Plain in the western part of Hubei Province.
