Ting Yue Lou (traditional Chinese: 聽月樓; simplified Chinese: 听月楼; lit. 'Listening to the Moon Tower') is a Chinese caizi jiaren romance novel by an anonymous writer from the Jiaqing era (1796-1820) of the Qing dynasty. The novel consists of 20 chapters. An early printed edition of the novel dating to 1815 is now preserved in the Zhejiang University.

Some of the later 19th-century editions of the novel feature illustrations by the famed Chinese illustrator Wu Youru (呉友如; 1840–1894).
