Controller to render all Partial Views

I'm very new to ASP.NET MVC4. I have an application that uses numerous partial views, currently I have a controller that I am using to return PartialView for each of them, makeing a very long file. 

public PartialViewResult somePartial()
    {
        return PartialView("someParital");

    }
public PartialViewResult someOtherPartial()
    {
        return PartialView("someOtherParital");

    }

Is there a way to create a controller that would return PartialView for an entire folder/directory?

Thanks,

You can return multiple partial View Using return Json Data as string of PartialView as describe here https://stackoverflow.com/a/18978036/2318354

return Json(new {  strPartial1 = RazorViewToString.RenderRazorViewToString(this, "someParital", model) ,  strPartial12 = RazorViewToString.RenderRazorViewToString(this, "someOtherParital", model2) });

Now instead of using UpdateTargetId On Success function do following way Ajax Request

@Ajax.ActionLink("Link-Name", "ActionName", "ControllerName", new AjaxOptions {OnSuccess = "scsFunction" })

on javaScript

function scsFunction(response) {
    var temphtml1 = response.strPartial1 ;
    var temphtml2 = response.strPartial2 ;

    $("#dvPartial1").html(temphtml1);
    $("#dvPartial2").html(temphtml2);

    }

This way you can update number of Partial View at One Action Call

You can render Partial Views directly into the markup using HTML Helper. The easiest way could be store every Partial View name into a List somewhere, and then use it to render every Partial View by name.

@{
    var myPartialViews = new string[] { "someParital", "someOtherParital" };
 }

@foreach(string partialView in myPartialViews)
{
    Html.Partial(partialView) //or Html.RenderPartial(partialView);
}
