Pinglin Township (坪林鄉; POJ: Phiâⁿ-lîm) is a rural township in south-eastern Taipei County, Taiwan. It is in the mountain area connecting to the Yilan County on the east coast. On 25 December 2010, the entire county will become Xinbei City, and Pinlin Township will become Pinlin District.

Pinglin is part of the water district of Taipei area as the Feicui Dam (翡翠水庫) is located here, so land development is restricted. Pinglin is the most famous place for producing Pouchong tea. The Pinglin Tea Industry Museum is the world's largest tea museum.
