Amphoe Mueang Nonthaburi
Amphoe Mueang Nonthaburi is a
district of
Nonthaburi province in
Thailand. The city of Nonthaburi has 267,001 inhabitants, while the whole district has 348,553.
The district was originally named Talat Khwan, however it is unknown what year it was established. In 1917 the provincial administration of Nonthaburi was moved into the district, and thus the district was renamed to Mueang Nonthaburi. From January 1 1943 till May 9 1946 the province Nonthaburi was incorporated into Bangkok, thus the district was renamed to simply Nonthaburi. After the recreation of the province it changed back to be Mueang Nonthaburi.
The district is subdivided into 10 communes (
tambon), most of them belonging to the city of Nonthaburi (thesaban nakhon). Bang Si Mueang has town status (thesaban mueang) and Sai Ma has commune municipality status (thesaban tambon) by itself.
