About "Pakchong"
Pakchong is the westernmost district (amphoe) of Nakhon Ratchasima Province, northeastern Thailand.
History
In the past this area was a part of Tambon Khanong Phra, Chan Thuek district (which is now Sikhio district). In 1949 Ban Pak Chong was upgraded to be Tambon Pak Chong. It was upgraded to a minor district (King Amphoe) effective January 1, 1957 consisting of the four subdistricts Pak Chong, Chanthuek, Klong Dan and Mu Si. It was finally upgraded to a full district in July 1958.
Etymology
In the reign of King Chulalongkorn (Rama V) during the construction of the northeastern railway through the area, the Nok Yung and Noi mountains were blasted through to make a channel for the railway. Then the people named the village Pak Chong, meaning mouth of the channel.
Geography
Pak Chong is the biggest district of Nakhon Ratchasima by area. Neighboring districts are (from the north clockwise) Sikhio, Wang Nam Khiao of Nakhon Ratchasima, Mueang Nakhon Nayok of Nakhon Nayok Province, Prachantakham of Prachinburi Province, and Muak Lek of Saraburi Province. The district is the gateway to the Northeast (Isan) of Thailand from the central region, as the main pass through the Sankambeng Range mountainous area is located in the southern section of this district. The southern parts of the district are part of Thailand's first and largest national park, Khao Yai. Within the park is the origin of the Takhong River, a tributary of the Mun River. The Takhong is the main water resource of Nakhon Ratchasima city.
