Den Chai, Administrative district in Phrae Province, Thailand.

Located at 466 meters above sea level, Den Chai encompasses five sub-districts with a total area of 265.6 square kilometers and a population density of 141 people per kilometer.

The district originated during King Chulalongkorn's reign when a camp was established to address security issues at the Doi Pok Ka Long gemstone mine in Mueang Phrae.

The district maintains traditional Thai administrative structures through its five tambons, which coordinate local governance and community activities across 52 villages.

Den Chai Railway Station serves as a transportation center with daily train connections to Bangkok, while National Highways 11 and 101 provide road access throughout the region.

The Den Chai Railway Station features twin two-story buildings connected by an administrative office, receiving a conservation award in 2016 for its architectural design.
