Khan Na Yao (Thai: คันนายาว, pronounced [kʰān nāː jāːw]) is one of the 50 districts (khet) of Bangkok, Thailand. It is bounded by other Bangkok districts (from north clockwise): Bang Khen, Khlong Sam Wa, Min Buri, Saphan Sung, and Bueng Kum. The district is most notable for Fashion Island & The Promenade shopping malls (served by Outer Ring Road - Ram Inthra MRT station on the Pink Line) and Siam Amazing Park amusement park.

## History

[edit]

Khan Na Yao was separated from Bueng Kum on 14 October 1997 announcement, effective 21 November 1997, together with Saphan Sung.[3]

Its name means "long paddy-field ridge", describing the geography of the district in the past; Khan Na Yao was an agricultural district. Until now, the rice fields and its ridges are long gone; they are part of the present-day Seri Thai road.

## Administration

[edit]

The district is divided into two sub-districts (khwaeng).
