Nuea Khlong (Thai: เหนือคลอง) is a district (amphoe) in Krabi Province, Thailand.
History
The minor district (king amphoe) was created on 1 April 1992 by splitting off eight tambon from Mueang Krabi district.[1] It was upgraded to a full district on 5 December 1996.[2]
Geography
Neighboring districts are (from the northwest clockwise) Mueang Krabi, Khao Phanom, Khlong Thom, and Ko Lanta. To the west is the Andaman Sea.
Administration
The district is divided into eight sub-districts (tambon), which are further subdivided into 56 villages (muban). Nuea Khlong is a township (thesaban tambon) which covers parts of the tambon Nuea Khlong. Each tambon has a tambon administrative organization (TAO).
