Sa Bot (Thai: สระโบสถ์, pronounced [sàʔ bòːt]) is a district (Amphoe) in the northern part of Lopburi Province, central Thailand.

History

The minor district (King Amphoe) was created on June 5, 1981, by separating the tambon Sa Bot, Maha Phot and Tha Thung Chang of Khok Samrong district.[1] It was upgraded to a full district on January 1, 1988.[2]

Geography

Neighboring districts are (from the north clockwise) Khok Charoen, Chai Badan, Khok Samrong and Nong Muang.

Administration

The district is subdivided into 5 subdistricts (tambon), which are further subdivided into 46 villages (muban). Sa Bot itself has township (thesaban tambon) status and covers all of the tambon Sa Bot. There are 3 Tambon administrative organizations (TAO) - Sa Bot, Maha Phot and Niyom Chai.
