Geography

Neighboring districts are (from the north clockwise): Mai Chai of Phayao Province; Pa Daet of Chiang Rai province; Phu Kamyao, Dok Khamtai of Phayao Province; Ngao and Wang Nuea of Lampang province.

Doi Luang, the highest point of the Phi Pan Nam Range is at the western end of the district.[1]

History

In 1917 Phayao district was renamed Mueang Phayao.[2] In 1938 the word "mueang" was removed, as only the capital districts of the provinces were to have that name.[3] With the creation of Phayao Province in 1977, the district was named Mueang Phayao again.[4]
