History

According to George Coedes, tradition states Ramathibodi I founded Dvaravati Sri Ayudhya in 1350.[1]: 222 

Created in 1897, the district was originally called Rop Krung (รอบกรุง). The district name was changed to Krung Kao (กรุงเก่า) in 1917.[2] In 1957 the name was changed to Phra Nakhon Si Ayutthaya.[3] to commemorate the old capital city of the Ayutthaya Kingdom. This makes it unique among Thailand's capital districts, the rest of which are named amphoe mueang followed by the name of province.

Geography

Neighboring districts are (from the north clockwise) Bang Pahan, Nakhon Luang, Uthai, Bang Pa-in, Bang Sai and Bang Ban.
