Bang Pa-in, Administrative district in Phra Nakhon Si Ayutthaya, Thailand.

The Bang Pa-in district covers 229 square kilometers of land in central Thailand, comprising 18 sub-districts and 149 villages within its boundaries.

The district changed names from Khwaeng Uthai to Phra Ratchawang in 1910 and received its current designation as Bang Pa-in in 1915.

The name Bang Pa-in stems from Bang Phra In, meaning place of Indra, referencing King Inthraracha from the region's ancient history.

The district maintains nine municipal areas and nine administrative organizations, with its main administrative center located in Ban Len.

During flood seasons in past centuries, Bang Pa-in served as the location for royal water repellent ceremonies.
