Sadao, Border district in Songkhla Province, Thailand

Sadao spans over 1,029 square kilometers of terrain at the Thailand-Malaysia frontier, containing nine administrative sub-districts and 67 villages.

The district emerged from the Anglo-Siamese Treaty of 1909, which divided the former Changlun district of Kedah between British Malaya and Siam.

The population of 124,115 residents represents both Thai and Malaysian influences, reflected in local markets, festivals, and border town activities.

Two major border crossings, Dannok and Padang Besar, connect Thailand to Malaysia through extensive road networks and railway lines.

The district includes the southern terminus of Phetkasem Road, which extends through Thailand as the longest road in the country.
