Khanom, Administrative district in Nakhon Si Thammarat, Thailand.

Khanom district stretches along the Gulf of Thailand with a coastline of beaches and limestone mountains from the Nakhon Si Thammarat Range.

The area, formerly named Tranom in 1365, transformed from a subordinate town of Nakhon Si Thammarat into a full district on December 11, 1959.

Wat Kradangnga, the oldest Buddhist temple in Khanom, represents the continuous religious traditions from the Ayutthaya Kingdom period to present times.

The district connects to major routes through Highway 401, linking to Don Sak via Highway 4142 and southwestern regions through Route 4014.

Local producers create regional specialties including shrimp chili paste, banana chips, and fish sauce using traditional methods passed through generations.
