HaKirya, or The Kirya (Hebrew: הַקִּרְיָה, lit.'The Campus'), is an area in central Tel Aviv, consisting of an urban military base north of Kaplan Street.

HaKirya contains the Tel Aviv District's government center and the major Israel Defense Forces (IDF) base Camp Rabin (Hebrew: מַחֲנֶה רַבִּין, Mahaneh Rabin), named for Yitzhak Rabin. It was one of the first IDF bases and has served as the IDF's headquarters since its founding in 1948. The base serves mainly command, administrative, communications, and support functions.
