Ái Châu (chữ Hán: 愛州) was a historical province of Vietnam under the third Chinese domination (Bắc thuộc) roughly equivalent to Thanh Hóa province today.

In 989 after an upland chieftain, named Dương Tiến Lục, had reported to Lê Hoàn that local militia from the aboriginal prefectures of Ái Châu and Hoan Châuse planned to resist Lê controlt, the king authorised an attack on the prefectures.

In a series of campaigns to secure control of these territories, he and his sons came into armed conflict with the existing local leadership.22 In 989, for example, Lê Hoàn authorized a loyal upland chieftain, named Dương Tiến Lục in the sources to lead an attack on the aboriginal prefectures of Ái Châu and Hoan Châu because the chieftain had concluded that local militia from these prefectures planned to resist Lê control."
