Bang Kapi ((タイ語:บางกะปิ); ) is one of the 50 districts (''Khet'') of Bangkok, Thailand. It is bounded by other Bangkok districts (from north clockwise): Bueng Kum, Saphan Sung, Prawet, Suan Luang, Huai Khwang, Wang Thonglang, and Lat Phrao. ==History== The area of Bang Kapi was once a jungle and has a history dating back to King Nangklao period when Chao Phraya Bodindecha (เจ้าพระยาบดินทรเดชา) led a troop to fight rebels in Champassack and Louangphabang and brought back people to settle here. When it had grown in size, Bang Kapi was established as an amphoe of Phra Nakhon province. It was once very large, but has been split many times to form new amphoe and districts. In 1966, the Huay Khwang sub-district and parts of the Bang Kapi sub-district were divided off to form amphoe Phaya Thai. In 1972, Phra Nakhon and Thon Buri were joined as the single province Krung Thep Maha Nakhon. Administrative districts in the capital city were changed from amphoe and tambon to district (khet) and sub-district (khwaeng), respectively. Bang Kapi thus became a district of the newly combined province, having at that time 9 sub-districts. In 1977, the Sam Sen Nok sub-district was moved to Huai Khwang district. In 1989, Lat Phrao and Bueng Kum were divided from Bang Kapi and became new districts. On October 14, 1997, Wang Thonglang sub-district was elevated to a district, taking along part of Khlong Chan sub-district with it. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Bang Kapi District」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
