Chaloem Phra Kiat ( _th. เฉลิมพระเกียรติ) is a district ("Amphoe") in the northern part of Saraburi Province, central Thailand.

History

"Tambon" Huai Bong, Ban Keng, Khao Din Phatthana, Phu Khae and Na Phra Lan were separated from Amphoe Mueang Saraburi to create the new district. The new district was officially erected on December 5th 1996, as one of five districts named Chaloem Phra Kiat created to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the ascension to throne of King Bhumibol Adulyadej (Rama IX) [cite journal|journal=Royal Gazette|volume=113|issue=62 ก|pages=1–4|title=พระราชกฤษฎีกาตั้งอำเภอเฉลิมพระเกียรติ จังหวัดนครราชสีมา อำเภอเฉลิมพระเกียรติ จังหวัดนครศรีธรรมราช อำเภอเฉลิมพระเกียรติ จังหวัดน่าน อำเภอเฉลิมพระเกียรติ จังหวัดบุรีรัมย์ และอำเภอเฉลิมพระเกียรติ จังหวัดสระบุรี พ.ศ. ๒๕๓๙|url=http://www.ratchakitcha.soc.go.th/DATA/PDF/2539/A/062/1.PDF|date=November 20 1996|language=Thai] . This area was selected because there is a royal project located within, a new agricultural theory tested at Wat Mongkhon Chaiphatthana by the Chaiphatthana foundation.

Geography

Neighboring districts are (from the north clockwise) Phattana Nikhom of Lopburi Province, Kaeng Khoi, Mueang Saraburi, Sao Hai and Phra Phutthabat of Saraburi Province.

Administration

The district is subdivided into 6 subdistricts ("tambon"), which are further subdivided into 51 villages ("muban"). Na Phra Lan has township ("thesaban tambon") status and covers parts of the same-named "tambon". Each of the 6 "tambon" is administrated by a Tambon Administrative Organization (TAO).
