Lan Saka ( _th. ลานสกา) is a district ("Amphoe") of Nakhon Si Thammarat Province, southern Thailand.

History

The district was at first a minor district ("King Amphoe") named Khao Kaeo (เขาแก้ว), which was a subordinate of Mueang Nakhon Si Thammarat. When the district office was moved to "tambon" Lan Saka, the district was renamed accordingly. In 1958 it was upgraded to a full district.
