Čengić vila (Cyrillic: Ченгић вила) is a neighbourhood in Sarajevo, Bosnia and Herzegovina. The neighborhood is a part of the Novo Sarajevo municipality. It is divided into the Čengić vila I and Čengić vila II units. Čengić Vila is home to 9,282 residents.[citation needed]

The neighbourhood's name Čengić derives from a family name, while Vila refers to a villa. Specifically, Ester Lazanji Čengić[1] built her residence in that part of the town in the 19th century, and people started calling the surrounding area "Čengić vila".
