Si Satchanalai, Administrative district in Sukhothai, Thailand.

The Si Satchanalai district extends over 2,050 square kilometers of terrain dominated by the Phi Pan Nam Mountains in northern Thailand.

During the 13th and 14th centuries, Si Satchanalai functioned as the residence of crown princes and second center of the Sukhothai Kingdom.

The district preserves numerous ancient temples and contains over 200 earthen kilns that produced high-quality Sangkhalok glazed pottery between the 11th and 15th centuries.

The district administration manages 11 sub-districts with 148 villages, maintaining essential services for its population of 95,198 residents across the region.

The area features a defensive system with a 5-meter-high wall and moat, constructed to protect against military incursions from neighboring territories.
