Wang Noi (Thai: วังน้อย; IPA: [wāŋ nɔ́ːj]) is a district (amphoe) in Ayutthaya province, Thailand, located 50 km north of Bangkok. The population of Wang Noi were mostly farmers but now this area is an industrial area.

Geography

The district is located in the southeastern part of Ayutthaya province. Neighboring districts are (from the east clockwise) Nong Khae, Saraburi province, Nong Suea and Khlong Luan of Pathum Thani province, and Bang Pa-in and Uthai of Ayutthaya province.

History

The district was split off from the district Uthai in 1907. At first named Uthai Noi (อุทัยน้อย), it was renamed to Wang Noi in 1917.[1]

The district is subdivided into 10 subdistricts (tambon), which are further subdivided into 68 villages (muban). Lam Ta Sao is a subdistrict municipality (thesaban tambon), which covers the whole subdistrict Lam Ta Sao and parts of Bo Ta Lo, Lam Sai and Chamaep.
