Bang Pa-In ( _th. บางปะอิน) is one of the 16 districts ("Amphoe") of Ayutthaya Province, central Thailand.

History

Bang Pa-In was established in the Ayutthaya era in the name "Khwaeng" U Thai. In Rattanakosin era "Khwaeng" U Thai was divided to be "Khwaeng" U Thai Noi and U Thai Yai. In 1910 "Khwaeng" U Thai Noi was changed status and renamed to Phra Ratchawang district. The district name was changed again to Bang Pa-In after the name of Bang Pa-In island in 1915.

Administration

The district is subdivided into 18 subdistricts ("tambon"), which are further subdivided into 149 villages ("muban"). There are 5 municipal ("thesaban") areas, and 13 Tambon administrative organizations (TAO).
