Bang Ban (Thai: บางบาล; IPA: [bāːŋ bāːn]) is a district (Amphoe) of Ayutthaya Province, in central Thailand.

History

The district originally created in 1894 as Sena Nai district, with its district office in Sai Noi subdistrict. Later Mr. Khiao Bangban (นายเขียว บางบาล) donated a piece of land for the building of the new district office in Bang Ban subdistrict. So the government agreed to change the district name to be Bang Ban as the donator's family name, which became effective in 1917.[1]
