Phaya Thai District
Phaya Thai ((タイ語:พญาไท); ) is a district in central Bangkok, Thailand. It is also the name of a major road, as well as a BTS Skytrain station, both of which are in the nearby Ratchathewi district.
Neighboring districts are (from the north clockwise) Chatuchak, Din Daeng, Ratchathewi and Dusit.
==History==
The Phaya Thai district was set up in 1966 taking areas that were part of Dusit and Bang Kapi districts. It was named after Phaya Thai Road, a major road in the area. Since then, many changes to the district has been made. In 1973, the Huai Khwang district was separated from Phaya Thai. Later in 1978, as an effort to balance the population among districts, the boundaries between Phaya Thai, Huai Khwang, and Bang Kapi districts were modified. A new Ratchathewi district was created, carving out southern part of Phaya Thai in 1989. And finally in 1993, some eastern part were moved out of the district to the newly formed Din Daeng, leaving Phaya Thai with only one remaining sub-district, Sam Sen Nai as of today.
Note that, due to the split out of Ratchathewi, the Phaya Thai Road is no longer in Phaya Thai district. It only runs through Ratchathewi and Pathum Wan. The Bangkok Skytrain (BTS) station Phaya Thai is located on Phaya Thai Road in Ratchathewi.
