Tản Viên Sơn Thánh (Chữ Hán: 傘圓山聖, 304 BCE - ?),or Sơn Tinh (山精) is one of The Four Immortals in traditional Vietnamese mythology. He is the god of Ba Vì mountain range[1] and figures also in the romance of Sơn Tinh - Thủy Tinh ("the God of the Mountain and the God of the Water").

Temples are dedicated to him in most towns, for example the Và Temple in Sơn Tây, Hanoi.[2]
